Well it’s a good question ? Why you ask ?
Same Capacity per Cartridge
Both Epson and Canon use approx 17 ml/cartridge with a few exceptions, on their mid of the line models.
Canon has Lower Cost per compatible cartridge
With all things being equal, (being different print technologies) the only real differentiator is the cost of the cartridges.
Using Metawatch Inkjet Supplies as a comparision, you can purchase the Canon BCI 6 series cartridges at a lower unti cost than that of the T048 or T044 series of Epson Cartridges.
So if price is your only concern then go Canon.
Epson has Higher Quality
Oops, oh yea, Epson tends to have a higher printer resolution than Canon printers…..
So if you want the best possible printer quality, go with Epson .. although you’ll be paying 25 % more for the epson compatible cartridges
In the end it comes down to your personal choice.
