Epson EcoTank L6171 Printer vs Brother DCP-T230 Ink Tank 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 L6171 Printer if you need: network / wireless printing (including 5 GHz when present), automatic duplex, higher ink yield.
Pick Brother DCP-T230 Ink Tank Printer if you need: higher ISO print/copy speed.
Key differences:
Based on the specs table, Epson EcoTank L6171 Printer fits most office needs better thanks to: Interfaces: Hi-Speed USB, Ethernet (10/100 Mbps), Wi-Fi IEEE 802.11b/g/n, Wi-Fi Direct vs Hi-Speed USB 2.0; Duplex Printing: Automatic vs Manual; Included Black Ink Yield: 14000 vs 7500.
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.
