Epson has extended warranty for 3 years on most models. Hp is 1 I believe. You have to register online for the extra 2 years with Epson.
I would take the Epson for that reason alone. Also, more ink for less with Epson.
I have the Epson L382. If not used frequently, the printer head has to be cleaned often and the power ink flush maintenance feature has to be used which uses a lot of ink.
