Our Verdict
HP Smart Tank 7301 [6001, 7001]
Epson EcoTank ET-4800
The HP Smart Tank 7301 is better than the Epson EcoTank ET-4800. The HP feels better built, is easier to maintain, has a greater overall page yield, and scans and prints documents faster. Meanwhile, the Epson does better to resolve fine details in photos and has a wider color gamut, though color accuracy is pretty poor.
