u brought up some good points for consideration. one big aspect though is how easily it is to maintain these printers, and the cost of ownership.
example, epson has a maintenance box module. this can be easily removed, self cleaned under a sink, reinserted, then use an unofficial resetter app. there is an official method for this which is to replace the maintenance box, but it's more costlier and wasteful so not your 1st go to option.
next is how to maintain the headers. we all know these ink bottle printers have an issue with clogging if not used often. so the epson refering to printer guy's past videos, you can see how it's done, and it seems doable (easy enough), and using the cleaning kit for the header.
Also the epson can handle re-manufactured ink which is cheaper than the official ink.
So maintaining an ecotank you do these 3 things mostly for keeping it running and lowering cost of ownership.
So then what about the other brand printers? So that is my point. It's not just how good the performance is (though is definitely important), or other features. You also have to consider the cost of ownership and ease of maintenance (whether via official or unofficial methods).
so despite the Epson being worse on performance, for a casual user with low volume printing, it might not matter as much, as long as it fared well in other areas, especially the points i brought up when compared to the other brands.
Thank you for sharing!
I bought the HP 6001 from their website. The pages printed slightly crooked, but no amount of adjustments would fix it. I then had to mail the printer back to them with a full load of ink installed, because there was no way to remove the ink. And I also had to go through a bunch of steps with tech support before they would give me a return authorization number, and many attempts by them to persuade me to keep the printer even though it printed crooked. In the future I will probably stick to a local seller, Costco, Best Buy etc.
Not surprised. I am totally done with ordering ant 'technical' product online. I was 'advised that i also needed a 'return authorization number' to return a camera body. In the end, I just gave up returning the item to their business address.
Did u try select plain paper when you use normal paper?

Well I just bought the Canon G7020 for reasons not covered in this video. The Canon is on sale right now, July 2023, for $229. Epson ET-2850 is also $229. The HP Smart Tank 6001 is way up there at $345. The Canon G7020 has an Automatic Document Feeder which is slmost a must if you want to use its Fax function, which is another feature that the others don't have. Dual paper trays allow me to use the lower tray for standard paper and the upper tray for speciality papers, like photo and cardstock. On top of that, it came with 3 bottles of black ink, which will last me for years.
Most helpful comment thanns.
More helpful than the video itself!
NO ⚠️ ruclips.net/video/Bt6KkFCw3eY/видео.htmlsi=eLJZzwXNX-GElrOi
FAX in 2023 does anybody using this still? Totally useless function in a printer if you ask me. Document Feeder is east when you need to scan a lot of pages.
@@user-ww4ko7dk5y Every now and then someone wants info to be exchanged via fax. It can be more secure that way. Excluding the fax function, the Cannon still wins. I love seeing those ink tanks sitting at 3/4 full right now. I use it infrequently, so I do nozzle check prints every few days if I haven't printed. I use the test sheets as scratch paper. Only thing I don't like is the small, monochrome, non-touch screen.
Your point about the screens is valid, but all these printers are designed to use with apps whether be on a computer or mobile. Something that’s important to me how the printers work with the software, I am running a brand new Mac with the newest operating system and also a 10 year old Mac, and I’d really like to know how well the printers will work in these scenarios. I think this is valid for windows users also.
usually there will be a software update for the printer to be compatible with the newer operating systems
What I would be most interested in is reliability and maintainability and longevity. So can all wearing parts be replaced to keep the printer alive? Does it work reliably if I don't print once a week? I rarely print, so I don't want a printer that just doesn't work after I haven't used it for a while. I don't want to buy new cartridges just because they dried over time. And I also don't want a massive, expensive color laser printer just to be able to print color, and then not even get decent picture quality. That's why I'm looking into tank printers. But I have seen reports of Epson smearing ink on the paper while printing, or Canon dying because of full ink sponges (I guess this is not an issue anymore, it should be replaceable now, right?). Not sure if HP has/had similar issues. Does anybody have long-term experience and can tell about that?
The tank printers have foam pads that take up ink inside the printer, they last about 1 year if you use the printer. When the sensor triggers that it's full, the printer will not print again and you cannot replace the foam pad yourself! Once sensor trigger it's over, even if you make your own foam pad the trigger will not reset. Printer company will say it's "beyond economical repair" and you have to buy a new printer.
They basically went from the ink scam to another planned break down scam.
@LumocolorARTnr1319 can you access the sponge, extract excess ink without removing the sponge from its location and continue printing?
@@UnknownPascal-sc2nk Some models have a digital chip that "counts" and once it gone to a limit it shuts things off no matter how much is in ink pads or if it's changed.
Worst is it for USA models, heard EU have better laws.
You should buy laser printers. Inkjet is not for you if you dont use your printer often. Because by construction inkjet printer has tiny holes where ink droplets are ejected and when you dont use your printer the ink will dry up and clog the holes.
@@mucaaco1 Colour Toner cartridges cost more than the printer itself… no. It’s only convenient for inactivity and prints quicker but the difference in print quality is negligible and speed I don’t really care too much, I don’t need 50 pages a minute. The cost of colour toner cartridges are so high that the yield stat is pointless, it’s similar economy to ink cartridges. The lasers are also strictly limited to plain paper, the higher end ink tank printers are not that bad for maintenance. The tech has improved every release.
So far I'm liking the Epson, I don't need a fast printer. but still doing my research. This helped, thanks.
Good da.. I love your teachings on printers. I have a Et-2803 I use for sublimation. I have an HP4650 that I planned on doing a project using cardstock and obviously it can't print on cardstock. My question is What is your recommendation for a printer (app $300 range) that does heavy cardstock and wide range format?
Hi, this printer is closest I could find to your criteria, however it is almost $500. amzn.to/3nrMZUz
Which printer do recommend for small businesses printing party favor items. I use glossy paper at times need a print that wont smudge after print. Thx
Great video! Thanks!
I have an Epson ET-2803 that I use sublimation ink in; love it. I just bought a discontinued Epson WF ST-2000 so I could have another tank type for ink; lasts longer. I currently have an Epson XP-4205 as my daily printer, but I do so many paper crafts that require a good deal of printing and like most cartridge printers, I have to keep getting cartridges! Since the Epson ST-2000 is a discontinued, used printer, I'm good with putting "generic" ink in it.
I had a Canon Pixma but I didn't like how it performed. Years ago I had an Epson WF and loved it, so I guess I'm kind of "loyal" to my Epsons.
Hello, does the enco tank printer smug on venyl stickers or westherproof paper sticker? Thank you
Which one uses third party ink the best?
Brandon, I'm looking to print multiple batches of postcards and don't want to feed one at a time. Will the Epson ET 3850 or ET 8500 do this? The postcards are each between 0.007 and 0.016 inches thick. Thanks.
I’ll go with the Epson. Thanks for the video! It’s helped make up my mind
Awesome!
Thanks for the great video. Any comment about the reliability of these printers?
I believe that reliability would probably be my number one important item followed by ease of use.
Thank You!
Yes, absolutely
Reliability to be determined
@@BestPrinterswell lets try to determine it:
how quickly a printer will get problems while in a regular non professional use for example.
how many pages one may print with a full tank of ink, i know it vary but lets try to decide on and full A4 page of text for the begging. how many pages with using just black ink one may print before refill is needed.
thx
Five minutes into the vid and you haven't got to any part of the review. Goodbye!
Agreed.
I shouldn't watch? 😀
😂
I am a paper crafter and I am researching printers mainly to print and copy card stock prints . both from scanning and download pictures . The cost of cartridges is adding up quickly in my current HP printer
Switch to a Canon, there are models specifically for crafters.
Hi, I listened to a few of your videos, very helpful ! So I purchased the Canon g7020 but there is banding on my photos/documents when I print in standard quality (no banding issues when in high quality, but you can't adjust quality setting from a smartphone, only from a pc, so all prints from my phone are terrible). After hours on the phone with Canon, they suggested to swap the printer as this seemed to be an issue with the printer. The second G7020 did the same. Got a third one from a different store, installed it at someone elses house, and I still get the same banding issue. I have read so much about banding in the last weeks.. i dont seem to be the only one having this problem with the g7020, but not that many people report this issue either.. I have tried what seems like every suggestions on how to fix it without any luck. Im about to bring the g7020 back and figure out which other printer I should buy, but I was curious if you had any last ressource for me regarding these banding issues...?!
Thank you for sharing, this is the first time I am hearing about banding on the Canon G models. I am not sure what the solution would be. Maybe try the Epson ET line up.
I'm looking to buy an updated printer and looking at the Epson 2800 tankprinter or the HP Envy 7955e. What printer will I spent more ink on?
The Hp will probably be more expensive with ink.
thanks actually really appreciate a video like this it made my choice so easy
Great!
Coming from an Epson ET-2550 that finally failed after 8 years. Trying to decide between the Canon Pixma G7020 for $229.99 and the HP Smart Tank 7301 I found a Demo Model on sale for $205. Any suggestions on what is the smarter buy/ better model? Thanks in Advance.
Dont buy the Hp
Thank you for the video! I need a color printer for my classroom! Do you have any recommendations? I want it to be reliable and last a fairly long time!
Go with the Epson, 3000 models or higher. You can swap the maintenance box if it ever becomes an issue. That gives you longevity with the printer.
@@BestPrinters does Epson printhead gets clogged easily? Canon you can swap printehead easily if goes bad. I'm looking to get ET-3850 tbh... Epson seems the way to go, if printhead is not an issue.
But the canon even though it is a tank printer it still have cartridges right? Please correct me if I'm wrong
Which printers let you use generic ink from whatever manufacturer or are they locking us to their brand ink (like the Epson does via the bottle nozzle shape etc)?
Any of them honestly, third party bottles have the patterns like the oem bottles.
WiFi connectivity as part of the initial setup including support for both 2.4 and 5 GHz bands seems to be a major usability issue. It seems like Epson does not support the 5 GHz band. What information can you provide in that regard?
Epson supports enough to have a good connection.
Excellent review my friend!👏👏 Can you please do a very detailed video on the Epson 8550 tank printer? I’m aware that you have done a review on the Epson 8500 tank printer! I believe the two printers are pretty much identical except for the paper size they except. Is this true?🤔
Yes
Thanks for the updated video! Have a Brother MFC that I love but looking for a new inkjet for photos / brochures (as the laser doesn't really do great photos / graphics). By the way, that pop-filter on the shelf in the background makes you look like you have a man-bun and I can't unsee it. 😅
Thank you for your reviews!
I am trying to figure out what printer to go for and your reviews really helps!
I am looking for a printer to use with my Cricut Maker to make my own stickers but I find it really hard to figure out which one of the three brands that works the best for this purpose.
The biggest issue is to find information about the g/m2 that the printers can handle when it comes to the different papers.
On Epsons site they don't recommend any product that's not their own brand that's over 90g/m2.
I do understand that they can't recommend use of third party product since it's not been tested with their own product but I wonder if you got any good input on this?
Have you tried any paper that's not Epson of a higher weight then 90g/m2 and/or glossy?
If so how does the Epson or any of the other model perform?
Before I found this information I was looking at buying an Epson Eco Tank 2850 but I got a bit hesitant after that.
Great, I am glad the video helped!
i'm here to bump since i'm also searching a printer for my sticker and/or art print shop 😔
Not sure if you’ve purchased a printer yet but I print glossy stickers on my Ecotank 2850 and cut on my cricut maker with no problem 😊
@@LizzieTorres22 This helps me thanks
Would you recommend the HP Smart Tank 6001 over the Brother Inkvestment?
That's up to your preference.
Love to see the different quality that they print at on different mediums.
I've been an HP guy for the last 20 years. But I'm tired of paying $$$$$ for cartridges. Even the generics for my current HP are $30 ea. Time to look at tank printers.
For me, the main thing I was looking for was the ability to change out the print head should it die. For that, the Canon won by a mile. The heads are cheap, readily available on Amazon, and easy to swap. Not so for the HP, and I'm pretty sure the Epson doesn't let you change it easily.
I saw your video, and it confirmed my decision to go with the Canon. ( I actually had the G7020 in my Amazon cart when I decided to give your video a look)
Yes, HP can get pricey. Canon TANK printers are a very good option.
Thank you - This was very informative
Glad it was helpful!
Great review, the scoring marks for each category is really helpful, thanks
I am glad the video was helpful!
How do you print business envelopes with the Epson EcoTank 2850
Choose the correct setting and adjust the paper tray.
Hi Brandon, stumbled on your videos yesterday. I just purchased the Epson ET-2800 yesterday from Office Depot. I had initially been using HP all in one printers that took cartridges (so this is my first tank printer.) Initially My use case is, I don't usually print a lot, and I got tired of paying HP's price for ink carts when I mainly just needed a scanner. So that's what I did initially I purchased the Epson Perfection V600 scanner which has worked fine. So, when I was considering a printer again, I was looking for something really basic, with no scanner, and just a printer.
After talking to the person at Office Depot about my needs, he recommended the Epson as the ink was cheaper, and you get more pages per ink fill as well. They had the 2850, and one of the models with the document feeders as well. However, since I don't do a lot of printer, and have a separate scanner, that's probably superior to anything in an all in one, I was mainly just focused on the printer part. So far, everything has worked, having already installed Epson software update for the scanner, didn't need the included disc. it found the latest software for the printer once I got it setup and connected to the iMac by AirPrint. Since then, everything has just worked. Then watched a few videos (including yours) and think I'm set now. I still would have preferred just a printer without a scanner, but at least I have a copy function, if I need it now.
Hi there! It's great to hear that you stumbled upon my videos and found them helpful. Congratulations on your purchase of the Epson ET-2800 printer! It seems like you made a good choice based on your requirements.
Tank printers like the ET-2800 are known for their cost-effective ink solutions, as they use refillable ink tanks instead of cartridges. It's a wise decision if you don't print a lot and were tired of paying high prices for ink cartridges with your previous HP all-in-one printer.
Since you already have a separate Epson Perfection V600 scanner that works well for your scanning needs, focusing on a printer without a built-in scanner makes sense. The person at Office Depot recommended the Epson ET-2800 based on its lower ink costs and higher page yield per ink fill. It's great that you found everything working smoothly after setting up and connecting the printer to your iMac using AirPrint.
Even though you preferred a printer without a scanner, having the copy function available can come in handy if you ever need it. It's always good to have some additional features.
If you have any specific questions or need further assistance regarding your Epson ET-2800 printer or any other technology-related topics, feel free to ask. I'm here to help!
@@BestPrinters Brandon, If you're not familiar with the Epson Perfection V600, FYI it's also a good value if anyone wants a film scanner. It's a flatbed, but can also scan film negatives. While I don't personally use the feature, it's good to have, if needed. The white part of the top comes off and under it is the UV scanner for film negatives. Just thought I would share in case you were unfamiliar with that model. Have a great day!
Im suprised you never mentioned the replacement ink heads for the hp smart tank
I had an Epson tank printer. It just stopped printing. All ink was still full, but blank pages were coming out. Tried cleaning, aligning ect...no avail. Threw it out!!
did u replace maintenance box behind?
Do you feel like the canon g7020 is worth the more money than the g6020 ? I’m looking for something to print small advertisements for a real estate company . Do need to do some business cards if possible and flyers. I head the g620 is also a great printer, curious which one you think is a the better printer for printing overall out of the g7020 or the g20 ?
Yes
@@BestPrinters do you feel, the Canon PIXMA G620 is a much better one for picture and image or is it comparable to the g7020 . I’m looking for something to print in bulk not really into scanning. Just need it for color flyers and business cards and papers . Which one would you pick ?
Can you use any of these for sublimation fir T shirts?
Yes the Epson EcoTanks
Hi! I need a printer for work that is USB wired, prints in color, all in one printer and scanner, and is less than 25lbs. Could you provide a recommendation? We will use the printer at convention centers where wifi is not readily available. :)
Hi yes the best printer for you needs is an Hp envy printer, such as this one. geni.us/h6SA
@@BestPrinters but that HP envy is not tank. Do you know what is the smallest of them all, I am looking to find a "TANK PRINTER" that fits in a very small office space, what is the one that takes less space ?
If you use the printer occasionally, will the ink tanks dry up or clog? Is it better to go with an ink cartridge printer?
Yes, the heads will clog, guaranteed. Head cleaning wastes a ton of ink and causes the device's ink counter to time out and turn it into a worthless piece of landfill.
Yes, I use mine infrequently and have to go through cleaning dried heads and flushing for a few copies. Now it is so clogged up, it won't work at all. Aargh!
Canon you can swap printhead $25... not sure about reliability but just the fact it has it and it's easy to swap, should be something to be considered IMO
I just got a brand new hp smart tank 5100 and got Hiippo sublimation ink for it. I used A-Sub paper to print out a n image to sublimate a mug using the cricut mug press.. the ink was not transfered.. Does nayone have any idea on the reason?
I'm not sure
I am so confused with my Canon pixma 6020. Worked fine for almost a year then just gradually stopped printing black...meaning the first few sentenced on the page were normal then it faded to nothing by end of page. Then it started doing it with color. Now it only prints blank pages. The printer accepts the job and it act and sounds like it is printing but nothing!! I have tried hard reset and some basic troubleshooting but don't know what to do now. I don't want to spend the money for new one
My Question is this…
Have you done any tests over longer periods of time? How long should a printer last? I’ve had issues of colors, especially with red, it starts printing orange after 4 or 5 months….
Yes, in that case you need to run a power cleaning to get color back 100%
@@BestPrinters I have, still bright orange!! My printer was still under warranty, fortunately, they sent me a New color cartridge, but, just wondering if it’s fixable for next time… this was the 2nd time… but last time to I’m sure… it’s a year old next month, so … guess a year is a lifetime for a printer?
I owned a Canon G3200 for 6 months, and it is now worthless because of the damn ink counter.
@@johne6081 ugh!!!
@@johne6081 if you’ve only had it for 6 months? It should still be under warranty ?
Call canon with the serial number?! They should send you a replacement part…
Dont buy a G6030 series model. They cannot be reset. When I try and reset everything...it basically locks me out of access from Wifi and settings. Anyone else have this issue?
No
Does anyone have a Canon G7020? Its the one in this video. I just bought one and the printer doesn't shop up when I connect it to a PC with a USB cable. There are no errors listed on the printer. Its like its just not there. I went through the procedure on Canon's website to install the printer with the latest software 4 times. I did all the restarts and cable swaps. Tried all of the usb ports on my computer, and nothing. I have another printer that works with the same computer and cables. I also plugged the printer into a different PC just to see if it would be recognized. Nothing as well. I was going to return it tomorrow, but I just wanted to find out if anyone has this issue and knows how to fix it. I also made some photo copies on the printer itself, and it works fine.
Good luck with your return. Online purchasing is so 'easy' until you want to return the item for a genuine reason. Large Email organizations can be tricky!
Im new to your reviews, retired and a lot behind on technology.
I'm interested in Epson ET 2850.
I want wireless and do not want to use an AP.
Advice please.
Hi, the 2850 is a fully compatible wireless printer.
When will new Epson printer come out? I'm assuming the 900 series?
Every 4 years roughly
@@BestPrinters Where did you get that information?
Great review
Buy my question is how do I know if any of these printers print claimed figures
How can you prove that or how do I get to prove that part
I use spec sheets directly from each manufacturer. They can easily be found online.
I'm looking for a new Eco tank type of printer. The reason I'm here is because my expensive EPSONET-4550 has some clogging issues. I was looking at your cleaning kit and I thought you mentioned in one of your videos that you had some videos for some specific printers. Do you have something for THE Epson ET-4550? At the time those were close to $500. Right now I'm looking at the new Epson ET- 4850 and the Canon G7020. I'm looking to see if there are clogging issues, a tiny waist ink collector like HP did with their Mega tank printers. After a few deep cleanings those printers disable themselves. Which renders the printer unusable. Sounds like HP doesn't want to let go of their Stranglehold on the price of ink. Well other manufacturers do. if there are jamming or disconnect issues. That seems to be the laundry list of common problems. I don't want to be Pennywise and pound foolish I'm hoping the Canon has good reviews it's almost half the price but there's probably a reason.
Any of these printers can have a printhead issue if you run them on low ink or dont print for a prolonged period of time.
you should talk about ink tanker show stoppers. does this printer has hidden catch . for example: Epson has its famous clean cycles death counter. its a chip. some will stop printer when one color is empty. etc.
Yes true it is horrible
Then it's bricked? Im between Canon n Epsons for tank. Not sure which is more reliable and ease of use. And also availability of Maintenance Box in the future.
I prefer a simple printer where I don't have to work with buttons. My laser printer is simple with a tiny screen i don't even use. My options are down to a HP 5101 or Canon G3270. Using for stickers for my craft sales
I'm looking at the Epson Eco tank photo et8550.
I love that model, excellent photo quality.
Which one print wider format
They all have a standard format.
Get the Epson et-8550 fro wider prints.
Which printer fills its ink overflow bypass sponge first - or has replaceable overflow unit - this is mainly causes failures or putting off purchasers or causing bad feedback….
Which printer for labels and business cards?
They all can handle business cards and labels well. The Canon is the fastest printing you can get.
@@BestPrinters how it compares to ET-3850 ... it's a bit faster than 2850...
Does anyone know Epson eco tank 4850 print getting faded once put a water drop
I dont understand the question.
Okey. What printer you il buy ?
Epson
Is planned obsolescence a thing?
Sam's Club only carries the Epson EcoTank printers, and is currently running a special on the ET-4850, with 2 extra bottles of black ink beyond what other vendors would include. I would like to upgrade from my Brother INKvestment MFC-J1215DW, and like the convenience of the INKvestment cartridges, but would be willing to drop the brand loyalty for a display screen and larger paper tray.
Does the Canon G3270 printer have a maintenance tank?
Yes it does.
I would like to know how the ink would stand up if it was left for 6 months while we were away. It would be left in winter cold temperatures .
I have an Epson ET2760. It is less than two years old. I went away for six months and came back to a printer with all clogged nozzles. I used a nozzle cleaning kit. I got my black and magenta going, but it clogged again after a week. I also found out that there is a storage tank that fills up if you use the automatic head cleaning feature, especially power cleaning too often. If it fills up, the printer will shut down and Epson will tell you to buy a new printer. I don't know if the newer ink tank printers are any better or not. I'm going to try taking mine apart again and cleaning the nozzles manually. If that doesn't work, I'll have to buy a new printer. It's a big rip off. I did read that the expensive models do have a storage tank that you can empty. I don't know if they're worth it. Good luck!
Yes in 6 months you will have a clogged printhead, then you will need to use my kit to fix it, geni.us/wArXsZT
Canon printers you can swap printhead easily OEM $25, pretty neat IMO. But I am still inclined to get Epson ET-3850 as I need the paper tray to save space, but am concerned about printheads getting clogged.
Should add Ink Refill cost to your list. Good video.
Great point!
Agree! 😊
The sad thing you realize as you get older is… you’d never live to see the day where someone perfects something enough for everyone to enjoy. Why? Because the worlds greedy…
Example in printers is the companies would never make a perfect machine easy to solve every issue … keep the best display, cost on ink.
They will never make a perfect machine because they want them to eventually fail and run out on you so you can spend $$$….
I wish we lived in a perfect world so we can focus on going into space… curing cancer.. finding secrets on the universe not fighting eachother to become rich in this short life that’ll eventually lead to nothing 🤣
True!
Amen
WORD!!!
i went with the Epson L3250 model which has wifi. Mostly because of what i've seen from your channel and others on it.
I regretted mine :(
Nice
Why didn't you mention anything about Brother printers?
Brother didnt have "tank" printers when I put out this video.
Which printer out of these has user replaceable print head?
The Canon would have a replaceable printhead out of the three. I word it that way because certain models do not have a replaceable printhead.
Does the g6020 or 7020 have replacement heads ? Is it a good durable model and manageable to do repairs and maintenance?
cost per page and 3rd party ink OK?
Hmmm.
I'm using now Hp 515 after two years , now it print black and white only.
Shall i replace the print head.
Or i replce the printer
Yes the printhead is removable so try replacing it first.
In reality, you have never seen these printers, but you give your opinion about them.
lol have you seen my channel bruh.
Really? They have the same quality of print? No color gambit tests, resolution, etc?
Yes
Hugs from Portugal
Thank you!
Brother print not in list?
Its a different type. It uses cartridges still i believe but there full of liquid ink not like standard canon hp cartridges that have a moist tampon of ink
@@Oofsmageroo Brother has ink tank models.
I’ll buy the HP
Cool!
I have used and setup all thee of these printers and they are all pretty good. I have no brand loyalty whatsoever so I could care less about that. The most important factors for me are usability, features, size, reliability and longevity. I have setup 3 of the Epsons, and 2 each of the Canon and the HP. I can say that the setup process of the HP is miles ahead of the other two with the Canon being the clunkiest. The online support again is better with the HP printer and their setup process is much more refined than the other two with Epson being slight easier to setup than the Canon. As a life long photographer, I love Canon and I have personally used more of their printers, but their setup and use is always a bit less than great. I was surprised at the attention on the LCD screen as that is my least used feature on any printer, but C'est la vie, different strokes and all that. I agree performance wise that the Epson is the slowest. After setting all three up for other people, (I needed a new printer/scanner) I went with HP for performance, setup, reliability longevity and size. The HP 6001 fits easily in my rollout printer drawer under my desk and I love the paper loading from the front. I should add that the scanning performance is also much better on the HP. So far, I have had to visit each person at least once for the Epson and Canon setups, but the two people with the HP 6001 have reported no issues. The HP gets a 5 out of 5 for overall performance and reliability for me after 5 months and it is only going for 229 right now. It is also the sleekest and most compact of the three. It literally took me less than 10 minutes to setup the HP printer although, to be fair, I have had lots of practice. My only con on the 6001 is that it does not come with an ethernet port. The next model up does, but it is more than a hundred dollars more and larger.
I end up getting HP 7002 for $220 at Sam's after quite some research.
@@hanyoupan7906 I just upgraded the 6001 to the 7602 on Cyber Monday Deal at Beat Buy and I am happy I did the upgrade. 😊
hmm...
HP due to faster ppm than Epson. For Pro series, I would recommend Epson.
I agree
Awe man just noticed this didn't have a fax. The 1 with the fax is 2x the price. Its not even on sale for black Friday nor cyber Monday.
Wow
It's a scam because it constantly asks for ink flush every once in a while...and THEN it just recently did the Error Code Absorber. Exactly why I am here. What an f-ing joke. It's really sad they do this. Then they promised me a cash back when I bought...to send me an email to my junk email that I didn't notice to resubmit..then I went to resubmit and they said it was too late. What a bunch of f-ers.
Hmm
@@BestPrinters Hmmm...printers been around too long. Why can't they make an honest printer...instead of taking advantage of people, especially ones who lack computer knowledge.
I had to return my Epson inktank printer as it was showing a papper jam from the freder but there wasnt any and I was very frustrated.
Don't buy Epson 2850, I just return one. It's WIFI connection is unstable for mesh WIFI. Also photo printed is red off. Both of them are common issue.
Wow
I hate my Epson ET-2850. I'm watching this video exactly trying to find an alternative to the 2850
Wow
why?
Waste tank/diaper exchange? Web UI/Server on printer? Linux Support ???
I will never buy another Cannon printer because of the lack of a Web UI and Linux support.
Video starts at 4:02
No it doesnt.
If you can't answer the basic question of which one to buy, why should I watch this video?
Its not a simple answer and depends on your needs.
A VERY IMPORTANT Fourth Category: Reliability / Longevity?????
Yes, so true
The Canon megatanks are total crap, per my personal experience with a G3200. Irreparable when the ink counter times out.
Wow
whats with the ink counter? is not just bottle ink, how are they locking us out?
@@danielhsubr They count stuff like number of times you do a head clean or a deep clean, both of which waste a lot of ink, which is soaked up in the pads at the bottom of the unit. It's all part of Planned Obsolescence and is total BS, and a violation of Right to Repair.
I look for these videos for direct information. You started the video out saying its going to be straight to the point and the first 3 minutes is you telling me you're going to cut out the fluff twice and the video is going to be straight to the point. How do you spend the first 3 minutes beating around the bush of telling me its going to be to the point. Just say welcome, Ill be comparing these printers let get into it.
I'll never buy a HP again... never.
Wow
Why? I have HP and I'm just curious...
@@ourgiftisLOVE HP bricks your printer when u stop buying the instant ink.... Even ur scanner won't work.
@oversoul3482 that's so weird. I have an HP and it's been working fine. I did upgrade from the 60001 to the 7602 tho just for the convenience of the feeder. And I LOVE the 7602 version!!! I'm so happy I upgraded. There was nothing wrong with the 6001, I just wanted an easier feeder so I don't have to keep opening the top if I'm scanning more than 1 sheet. I love that you can save on the ink, it's bottles, not cardigans, I love the photo quality, it prints smoothly, I love that it connects to my phone and the HP app also provides free sheets / templates, calendars, activities, coloring pages for kids as well... I'm sorry you've had a negative experience with them. 😔 That's unfortunate.
I have a Canon pixma g3420
Seems like that canon megatank has the highest score overall
Also in my experience slow printing speed and low paper feed volume is way worse than Canon's shitty screen
It's bad but I got it to work
Thanks for sharing!
oh god you just gave opinions, not a single example or proof of anything. The cherry on top is that the answer to the question in the title can only be answered by us. Then why did you make this video? (that was a rhetorical question, I know it's for the passive income, but come on... you can do better)
Why don't you make a video then?
You look like Ukraine President 😅
I wont be dancing in high heels
