Ripple Maker in one paragraph

Reading only the Ripple Maker and Evebot columns, the split is clear. Ripple Maker wins on the hospitality platform row and is marked fast; Evebot EB-FC1 wins on true full color. Evebot EB-Pro is the faster Evebot but gives up color. On resolution, Evebot lists 600 DPI and Ripple Maker's figure is not stated. Neither brand is marked for two cups at the same time, for a wide Art area up to 12 cm or for unrestricted full color plus brown in the same device.
Now read the CAFEPASTE columns.

The CAFEPASTE Pro adds the three rows nobody else is marked for: two cups at once, a 12 cm Art area and the combination of two cups with full color and brown.
