Epson EcoTank L3160 Printer vs Epson EcoTank L8050 Printer — choose by the use case in the table (role/paper, document features, connectivity, speed).
research reference (not for sale) vs store product.
When to pick which:
Pick Epson EcoTank L3160 Printer if you need: fax or a fuller print/scan/copy set in the table, higher ISO print/copy speed.
Pick Epson EcoTank L8050 Printer if you need: faster 10×15 cm photos (lower seconds), higher ISO print/copy speed.
10×15 cm photos: EcoTank L8050 about 12 seconds and EcoTank L3160 about 69 seconds in published figures (~57 second gap). That edge is conditional on matching quality mode, bordered printing, and test conditions — paper type alone is not enough.
Key differences:
Based on the specs table, Epson EcoTank L8050 Printer fits most office needs better thanks to: 1015 Cm Photo Print Speed: 69 vs 12; Iso Print Speed Color: 5 vs 8; Maximum Print Speed Color: 15 vs 22.
Maximum dpi and ink bottle series numbers alone do not settle the buy.

Not by themselves. Dpi alone does not prove higher quality, and bottle series is a consumables difference. Decide by role, duplex/ADF, speed, connectivity, and price.
