Epson EcoTank L6498 Printer vs Epson EcoTank L6570 Printer — choose by the use case in the table (role/paper, document features, connectivity, speed).
When to pick which:
Pick Epson EcoTank L6498 Printer if you need: automatic duplex, higher ink yield, ADF or clearer scan/copy in the table.
Pick Epson EcoTank L6570 Printer if you need: automatic duplex, faster 10×15 cm photos (lower seconds), higher ISO print/copy speed.
10×15 cm photos: EcoTank L6570 about 26 seconds and EcoTank L6498 about 69 seconds in published figures (~43 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 L6570 Printer fits most office needs better thanks to: Iso Duplex Print Speed Black: 7.5 vs 21; Iso Duplex Print Speed Color: 5 vs 21; Automatic Document Feeder Capacity: 35 vs 50.
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.
