![]() One last thing: They’re both relatively big, mostly black, and relatively unattractive (but then so is just about every printer ever made). The same goes for printing and scanning quality, which I also declared too close to call. Their feature sets are closely matched, and in six months of daily use I found printing and scanning speeds too close to declare a winner. This isn’t a review of the printers themselves, but for the record, they’re more alike than different. I tested the ink initiatives with an HP OfficeJet Pro 8620 (left) and an Epson WorkForce ET-4550 EcoTank (right). ![]() Hewlett-Packard’s (HP’s) new initiative is “Instant Ink,” and it charges you not for the ink you use, but by the number of pages you print each month instead, with plans ranging from $2.99 for up to 50 pages per month $4.99 for up to 100 and $9.99 for up to 300. As you may recall, Epson’s new approach to ink is five new EcoTank models with huge ink reservoirs that hold enough ink for up to two years of printing.
