Our Verdict

HP ENVY Photo 7855

Epson Expression Premium XP-7100

The HP ENVY Photo 7855 and the Epson Expression Premium XP-7100 are both all-in-one color inkjet printers, but the Epson is better overall. The Epson prints more pages before its cartridges run out, keeping its cost-per-print lower. It prints color documents slightly faster, though it takes much longer than the HP to initialize and get a single page out. In regards to print quality, the Epson is better for color documents, while the HP is better for black and white documents. For photos, the Epson is much better, as it produces finer details and a much wider range of colors. Although both printers have an automatic feeder, only the Epson supports duplex scanning.
