Reviewer score 34% (normalized by Neofiliac)
Reviewers from rtings have found:
The Epson ET-4700 is a very good family printer. The photo printing quality is decent with minimal color in the grayscale. Thanks to its high yield for both black and color pages, you will not need to refill the ink tanks often. It has a great scanner with the option to extend the lid so you can scan thicker documents.
Pros
  • Excellent black and color page yield
  • Low cost-per-print
  • Great scanner with an Automatic Document Feeder
  • High page yield for both blacks and color pages
  • Fully automatic document feeder on the scanner
Cons
  • No external storage support
  • Poor photo printing quality
