Verdict

The call

Printer and Smart Printer both sit at 4.5 stars, but that hides the real split: 84% of Printer's written reviews are positive against 48% of Smart Printer's. Smart Printer's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months) and chart position (#124 vs unranked). On price, rating, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.
