Who should pick which
Pick the Expression Photo HD XP-15000 if
You print 13 x 19 only occasionally and want to spend as little as possible.
Pick the PIXMA PRO-200S if
You print 13 x 19 regularly or care about the result.
The call
If 13 x 19 is a weekly habit, buy the Canon. If it’s twice a year, the Epson is defensible.
