I would also consider the following: Check out 3rd party paper suppliers. Do they have printer profiles (ICC's) for these printers. Are inks readily available if you run out? Is the ransom cost for the inks painful. So does a Costco or a office store carry those inks or are you forced to go estore and have it shipped. Would you even consider 3rd party ink suppliers or refills (some are not possible). Lastly, everyone sees their colors differently. Do Epson, HP, Canon, Lexmark, Kodak colors meet your expectations. For me some are lacking even within manufacturers. So shop so there are no surprises.
