Our Verdict

Epson Expression Home XP-4100

Epson Expression Home XP-4200

The Epson Expression Home XP-4200 is a newer version of the Epson Expression Home XP-4100. They have identical features; the only difference is that the XP-4200 uses different ink cartridges, which yield slightly more prints. They perform very similarly printing-wise.
