The power went out, then came back on a minute later. I held the Energy Saver and the Lighting buttons together for about 10-15 seconds. That reset the refrigerator. Nothing else worked.

SOURCE: Freezer goes off with brief power failure + does not reset

What Samsung said is untrue....
The fridge and freezer have default settings...8 and 38 deg. If it looses power and is restored it will default to that....
This fridge is a complex device and is compute chip controlled.
There are tests that you can run if you have the ability to read and follow directions....That will allow you to guide a service person to what your problem is. They will probably not have this information so I am giving you the link to the service manual...

Good luck

My HP C4780 PRINTER WILL PRINT A TEST PAGE BUT NOTHING ELSE. How do I get it to print?

Check the settings in Windows Print Manager.

Make sure that the paper quality matches what is in the printer. If set to glossy, minimal ink is deposited on the page. Also, check the print quality - draft quality provides a minimal amount of ink as well.
