Canon E500 vs HP 2515 ?

If for professional printing (eg. photo, bar code) then both are good. Both have good printer heads that last long. like me, lots of print then I would go for Canon cause easy to get CISS (Continuous Ink Supply System) aka external ink. For me, printer head problem no problem. The printer comes with three modes – high, standard and quick, along with a customizable preset. It’s a budget all in one, so there are going to be trade offs between quality and speed of prints. photo print tests, the E500 managed to do a full sized photo printout in 101 seconds.

The E510 and HP 2515 priced really close, so I'm not sure which one to choose. The HP seems to be of better build quality though (quite subjective).  Cartridge page yield for Black 480 print and for Color 150 print.
