Both the Epson WorkForce Pro WF-7840 and the Epson EcoTank Pro ET-5850 are multifunction inkjet printers with flatbed scanners and automatic document feeders. However, the EcoTank 85850 is more economical, featuring SuperTank technology that gives it a much lower printing cost per page. You can learn more about the EcoTank in our Epson EcoTank ET-5850 review.

While the Epson WorkForce Pro WF-7840 and the HP DeskJet 3755 are all-in-one inkjet color printers, the two are very different. The Epson printer is a business-friendly model, boasting a flatbed scanner with an automatic document feeder and automatic duplex printing/scanning. The HP DeskJet, on the other hand, has a more tedious sheet-fan scanner incapable of automatic duplex scanning. Check out our HP DeskJet 3755 review for details.

Featuring inkjet cartridges and all-in-one color printing, the Epson WorkForce Pro WF-7840 and the Canon PIXMA TR8620a are somewhat similar. However, the Epson device is the more business-friendly option, featuring much faster printing speeds and lower printing costs. The Canon PIXMA, on the other hand, is better for photos, producing more color-accurate prints. Consider our Canon PIXMA TR8620A review for details.
