Our Verdict

Epson EcoTank ET-2720

HP Tango X

The Epson EcoTank ET-2720 and the HP Tango X are two very different printers. The Epson is a supertank designed for high-volume printing, so it has a much higher page yield with a much cheaper cost-per-print. Also, it has a flatbed scanner, a USB port to connect directly to your PC, and supports Mopria Print Service. On the other hand, if you're looking for a compact model to print only, the HP is much smaller, and it comes with a linen cover to hide the printer when not in use and keep dust out.
