Your school doesn't have a library where you can print?

Nope. I go to a public school here in the Philippines and they are notorious for the lack of proper equipment and facilities. Only teachers get access to printers.

 

Besides, I want to be able to print at home so that I can finish my homework as late as I want to without having to wake up early and go somewhere to print etc.

 

My whole family will be using this printer

Personally, I'd suggest getting a laser printer before an inkjet. If you need an inkjet, I'd go with the Epson.

Yeah, people keep on suggesting that I get a laser printer but the cheapest one that I could find that prints color is almost double the price of these two

 

Why the Epson?

Get the Epson.The ink price is only 1 dollar lower but as a student you'll be saving a lot of money

I've found them the easiest to fix internally and, while only a few cases, found CS to be very capable in terms of sending in a printer or asking for parts.
