Does it work well for black and white photos?

It did not work good on any photos. I found that the ScanSnap 300 by Fujitsu works excellent on all... plus it is good for documents.

It works well enough, but I have low expectations. I wanted something small and convenient to use, which it is. I use the copies for digital scrapbooking. If you want real quality, maybe not this one.

It copies it just like the original photo, so if the original is B&W;, it scans like that.

Yes, I think that I indicated this in my review. The photos from the 50s and 60s are black and white and they look fine. I guess if you truly appreciate B&W; you may have a different opinion but I am not scrutinizing them for how accurately they reproduce the original, just saying they look plenty good to me.

It works very well with black and white photos. It even works well with very old photos that have a brown tint.
1247073
yes, I have scanned pictures from years ago before there were color photos.
1247074
Yes. Same quality as for color. (good enough for 3X5 or 4x6 prints, not good for much larger prints)

Yes, it has support for black and white printing, and prints documents with plain text extremely fast. It uses very little ink for this kind of work. This is pretty similar to other printers that have dedicated blank ink tanks.

It does works on photos, although the quality will match that of printed pictures from the 80s and 90s. If you have a more modern, high definition printed picture, it's scanned copy will be of lesser quality.

No, I used it in my digital camera for stills and videos. However, I would not recommend it. It started taking half photos: the bottom half of one photo became the bottom half of the next. Or the bottom half of the photo was completely dark. I replaced it with a San Disk.

Yes to both questions but remember this is a film camera. This is not digital. Needed an inexpensive way to shoot classic black and white images.

Pretty sure that option is NOT available. As others have mentioned, scan the photo, and import it into a 3rd party software program, and then convert it to Black and White. There are several free programs that will do this. GIMP can do it, and is very popular. But there are other good ones too.

I have not done it yet, but the specification say that it will, and that's one of the reasons I bought it. It has settings for positives or negatives, and for color or black and white (and many other settings). So far I have scanned over 1500 color slides and I am amazed at the quality for this price. It comes with a slide holder and a negative holder.

It will scan to Mac. I can't 100% say for sure about black and white negatives as I haven't tried this. The slides we had were from the 60's and 70's so some of the negatives were faded and I thought the scan was accurate to the faded color of the slide

I don't know. I have only used it for wildiife photographs for which it is quite good.

This printer is better for photos, specifically black and white, mine had major problems after only a few months, just when it came out of warranty

It works. But remember. The white area is 'transparent'. When you print a picture, the white areas are see-through. I printed a picture with lots of darks and transferred it to a dark shirt, and since white doesn't transfer, it didn't work out right. (Printers don't 'print' white)

yes its work but difficult to use because its light very strong most pictures appears completely white , so you need to know how does it work

It prints in both color and black and white. Our black cartridge would not work for some reason so it would use color instead. Look into a canon pixma. They are cheaper and work much better in my experience. I got one for myself and one for my mom and we both love them.

I used it for many 35mm color slides and negatives, and got OK results. If you have a Windows machine you can use the software that accompanies the scanner to get better results.I chose this one because it is also a good flatbed scanner.

If you are looking to print pictures then Yes. If you are looking to only print black and white there are cheaper options. This does print beautiful pictures though.

yes, but do not buy it. it's very poor in colours and shows almost pictures in grey not even black.
