Hi printer705,
Please try using the Advanced mode of the scanner driver to make adjustments before scanning. To do this, please follow these steps:
1. Click on the Windows Start button, (All) Programs, Canon Utilities, then MP Navigator EX. Then click MP Navigator EX.
2. Point to Scan/Import and click Photos/Documents (Platen).
3. Select the Use the scanner driver checkbox, then click Open Scanner Driver.
4. Click Advanced Mode.
5. Next to Select Source, select from Color Negative Film, Color Positive Film, Monochrome Negative Film and Monochrome Positive Film.
6. Next to Film Size, select from 35mm Strip or 35mm Slide.
7. Click Preview.
8. Make any desired changes.
9. Click Scan.

Thanks Patrick! ...and sorry for the late reply --
...I'm on a Mac. Is the process the same? And is this the process for sharper scans? I've had no problem scanning -- just the resulting images from film are soft.
Thanks again!

Hi printer705,
Yes, the steps would be the same after the MP Navigator EX is open. To open the MP Navigator EX, please open your Applications folder and then the Canon Utilities folder.
