Good for 4K/UHD since it is U3, not U1. Worked fine on my trip.

Some TVs just have it. They make everything look good—even hard stuff like 4K upscaling, weird viewing angles and daytime sports. Among the gifted their talents still shine bright. But when it’s Samsung Neo QLED 4K we’re talking about, there’s no need to be jealous. Because—thanks to its brilliant picture, dynamic audio and stellar design—it’ll make you look good, too.

They did a good job, although for a moment I thought they were going to put it in with the front vent. We have a top vent. We looked at the instructions and then it went smoothly.

Really good. We miss the back & forth, side to side rectangular tray on our old maytag. Round trays don't hold enough, unless you turn the circular motion off. Looks really good and so far does a good job

If you think a refrigerator with top-of-the-line features means sacrificing style or space, this will make you reconsider. With nearly 25 cu. ft. of space, this 33" wide refrigerator has the large capacity and boasts features such as a tall water dispenser with an ice system that actually frees up shelf space. It also has Smart Cooling technology built in, designed to help keep your food fresher. With that and much more, you get the peace of mind of a 10-year warranty on the linear compressor. It's a refrigerator with something for everyone.
 

Does this model have the fingerprint resistant finish?

Yes, it is stainless steel, not a finish that looks like it. So far we really like this refrigerator. More space and easy access.

Scan all your prints, negatives and slides quickly and efficiently. Complete with film holdersit handles just about any size and format, including 35 mm filmstrips, mounted slides and full panoramic medium format film.
 

Will this work with Mac OS Catalina on a MacBook Pro? I need to scan quite a few slides and photos, label and organize them, and then download to thumb drives for my kids.

I just go done going through over 1500 pictures, 35 mm slides, old camera film strips, and converted them to high resolution pictures.. I used Photoshop to restore their colors, added labels to the digital image, Some pictures were from early tin type photos and/or in horrible shape. Photoshop and I restored their colors, restored missing pieces, erased cracks, spots, etc.

Depending on your numbers, you might also consider using a service to digitize the pictures. digmypics.com did a good job on the 8mm movie film I sent. I then edited with Adobe Premiere Pro.

Go to Epson website they should list the OS that it works on. I do windows 10, but I am pretty sure they were doing MAC.

Which Epson scanner is best to scan boxes of photos. I have a Macbook Pro with OSX version 10.9.5 I am reading there are problems with the software when using scanner and Macs. Are there drivers that will work my Mac. Will it work with Windows 7?

I am on windows 10 now. The info on the site, or manufacturer should list compatible OS. This is not super new, so I would expect it to support "Legacy" ie. Windows 7 and above. As to Apple products - don't know. There are updates to the software, utilities, and firmware online at Epson. Go there read the info, ask them questions.

I have a ton of equipment manuals on microfiche. I would like to know if this scanner would allow me to scan microfiche slides into my computer at a sufficient readable/legible quality image.

Good question. It might be able to do that depending on whether the highest resolution will make those tiny rectangles biggest enough to view. However I doubt it would be enough. I think a microfiche machine uses a magnifying lens, and then takes a picture of the page. I would check any company that still uses that to see if they have a solution, or used a service to do this.

Buy it, try it. If it doesn't work or proves to be to time consuming - take it back (keep all materials in the box in good condition).

So this is just a scanner and not a printer? If it prints what does it take for Ink???

This is not a printer.

This is just a scanner. You can do high resolution scans of pictures to create a digital copy. You can also scan 35mm slides, negative or positive film strips from older film based cameras to digitize - because unlike cheaper scanners it has a built in light on the cover you lift up to put things in to scan. You can also use it to create pdf documents from documents that you scan.

I used it to scan all the old photos, 35mm slide, and film strips from cameras to create a digital library/alblums from my Mother's boxes of pictures of the children from babies until grown up, married, and their children. Some of the really old stuff, I used Photoshop to touch up/restore to their former glory. About a 1500 pictures. I could have sent them to a site that digitizes pictures, but this way I controlled what I got and it paid for itself.

Software is good, and allows you to pick a level of competence from beginner auto scan, to expert where you can adjust various aspects. It can recognizes multiple image, shows them in thumbnails, so you can scan multiple pictures at one time.. You can have it send output to a printer, so it scan and prints in one step (like a Xerox copier only at a higher resolution).

I HAVE MANY OLD 2 1/4 SLIDES, MOUNTED MEASURING 2 3/4 SLIDES. CAN I SCAN THE MOUNTED SLIDES AS THEY ARE OR DO I HAVE TO USE THE UNMOUNTED SIZE? THX'

The standard slides fit in the slots mounted (4 at a time, each in it's own slot). There is a separate slot for film strips and one oversized slot for a really large film format. They all work well.

Will this scanner make prints from slides?

Yes,

You push on a sort of button that holds the white background in place on the top - allowing you to remove it. there is a lighted strip behind the white background that will illuminate the film strip, or 35 mm Slides. On the platen (glass bottom) are notches for placing plastic inserts (one for 35 mm slides, one for photo camera film strips, and one for larger film. You select film (vs reflective) and the scanner will recognize and make thumbnails of them. There are also some editing tools for any mode you select to improve your scan.

how to scan multiple photos and get thumbnails

In the home or office mode when you preview it will put the pics in thumbnails. In professional mode in preview you draw a box around each object you want to scan, then click on the one you want to scan, then the clik on the next and scan, etc.
