Our Verdict

Epson Expression Home XP-5200

Epson Expression Home XP-4200

The Epson Expression Home XP-5200 is better than the Epson Expression Home XP-4200. The XP-5200 feels better built, uses Epson 222 cartridges with a higher page yield, and prints faster. On the other hand, the XP-4200 is a little easier to maintain.
