Alastair:

If you plan on batch scanning many slides, it is well worth the time and 
effort to remount everything in Wess or Gepe mounts.  I'm gradually working 
my way through over 500,000 slides, remounting them all.  All new film goes 
directly into Gepe mounts.  I've never had a Gepe mount jam.

The scanner does work better plugged directly into the USB port on the 
computer.  Be sure that wherever you have allocated to save the files has 
plenty of room for all of the slides in the batch you are scanning.

Hope this helps.
