Our Verdict:

A part of in the manufacturer's small-in-one range, the Epson Expression Home XP-405 small-in-one is an ideal home printer capable of scanning, and copying while keeping low running costs. It offers crisp and high-quality prints at 33 ppm, while the scanner can save images with up to 1200 dpi resolution. Digital copies can be made at about the same rate and with the same quality. The Epson XP-405 even offers WiFi printing and with its colour touch panel, navigating printer menus has never been easier. However, this model is only suitable for low-volume printing and it lacks fax capabilities.

It has an inkjet engine that uses individual ink tanks, ensuring cost-effective maintenance and less printing waste. The Epson XP405 Expression Home printer even has memory card support in addition to its USB and WiFi connectivity. The Epson XP405 is designed for mobile printing as well as for cloud and WiFi printing, ideal for home users who love printing photos direct from their smartphones and other compatible WiFi devices.

Consequently, the XP405 delivers superior quality photo prints.

Disadvantages
