Epson’s ET-7750 won’t ‘phone home’ (it doesn’t have fax capabilities for a smart), but it’s one of the more economic options out there for printing A3. While the printer itself isn’t cheap, its ink bottles are affordable and last for a long time - enough for 3,400 photos - which reduces operating costs over time. Photos look great thanks to its five-color refillable ink tank system, which offers a huge improvement in image quality versus its predecessor, the ET-4500. Drawbacks include its small non-touchscreen, lack of an automatic document feeder (ADF) and limited paper tray capacity.

We have few gripes with the WorkForce Pro, which sports an impressive feature set and offers exceptional value. This compact model prints in color and mono with impressive results, and it boasts a myriad of connectivity options including USB, WI-Fi, Wi-Fi direct, Ethernet and even NFC, which is lacking in some rivals in its price category. Handily, its ADF supports automatic scanning of both sides. Only its output tray, which holds half the amount of sheets than certain rivals in its class, and lack of optional paper trays (for mixed paper size printing) are cons worth mentioning.
Epson has managed to shrink the inkjet printer to the size of a small handbag without sacrificing key features, or print quality and while adding a powerful Li-Ion battery. The protective plastic casing is textured for grip and scratch resistance and it unfolds to form the paper in tray, which can hold 20 sheets of A4. Inbuilt Wi-Fi enables a direct connection with your mobile device, or a Wi-Fi network. Alternatively, there’s also a micro USB port for making a wired data connection, and crucially, this port can also be used to charge the internal battery. There’s no auto-duplex mode of course, but the print quality here is no less crisp and colourful than a full size printer.

Hats off to Epson for managing to eke professional-looking photos out of the XP-15000, a consumer-grade model that does a great impression of a commercial printer. It's a feat the company has achieved through the use of its Claria Ultra HD inks and the XP-15000's 180 nozzles, which combine to produce strikingly vibrant color photo prints and sharp greyscale images with a max resolution of 5760 x 1440 dpi. The unit is compact for a wide-format inkjet printer, and it's compatible with various mobile printing services including Epson Connect Solutions, Epson Remote Print, Apple AirPrint, and Google Cloud Print.
This refreshingly simple monochrome print-only device may seem spartan in terms of features, but what to does do, it does well. There’s no display of any kind, no inbuilt wi-fi and no auto duplex mode, however, there is a large refillable reservoir for black ink that makes this one of the most economical printers in town. It ships with enough bottled ink to yield around 5,000 pages, so it actually works out at a lower cost per page than a laser printer. There’s enough room for 150 sheets of A4 in the main tray and it prints at a respectable rate of 15 pages per minute, or more than double that in fast mode.
There's a lot to like about the Epson WorkForce WF-7210DTW. Despite being one of the more affordable A3 inkjet printers around, it consistently produces high-quality output thanks to Epson's PrecisionCore technology. Blacks are crisp, and photos are as good as could be expected at this price range. It's not short on connectivity options either, with USB, Ethernet, NFC and wireless connectivity (via Epson Connect) for direct and remote printing. If we’re being picky, its LCD display is a touch on the small side.

This is a compact printer that produces pleasingly high-quality photos. Similarly to its wide-format printers, Epson twins the model with its with premium Claria ink cartridges to print stunning color photos. On the flip side, they as expensive as they are impressive and offset the XP-6100's initial affordability. Once in operation the XP-6100 prints quickly and can handle a variety of media, from glossy A4 paper to envelopes. Its connectivity options include Wi-Fi Direct, AirPrint, in addition to an SD card reader and touchscreen that's bigger than most.
Apart from the ability to print on both sides of the page automatically, the most affordable model in the Expression Home line offers everything you could need in a home printer at a remarkably low price. It can print in colour using individual ink cartridges (rather than combining the colours in one cartridge), scan A4 pages at high resolution and copy. Wi-Fi is built in for a network connection, or a Wi-Fi Direct link with your mobile device. It can print envelopes, glossy photo paper and hold a hundred sheets of A4 in its main paper tray. The design is unobtrusive and it is compatible with Epson’s Ready Ink subscription service, which provides you with refills at a discounted rate.
The SureColor SC-P600 should be at the top of any enthusiast or professional photographer's Wishlist. It's solidly built and easy to use, and you'll be impressed with its incredible print quality. On the flip side, it's not the most affordable to run over time and is an expensive option for occasional users who may be better served using online services. If you're planning on selling your work, that would at least mitigate the expense. Either way, the SC-P600 will impress enthusiasts and professionals alike.

This Epson model will appeal to certain businesses who prioritise low running costs and decent print quality over features such as a large paper capacity tray, automatic duplex scanning or fax support. A feature of Epson's EcoTank range, the ET-3760 comes with supersized ink tanks which are easy to refill and last for two years without needing to be replenished. The ET-3760’s 2.4-inch display is a little cramped and only good for a quick glance at ink levels - you'll want to log into the printer's settings portal to print off usage reports and perform other tasks.
