I have the Epson V500: when my mother reached her 100th. birthday in 2018, my brother and I scanned all of her negatives, ranging in size from 1.5inches square to 6x9cm and going back in time to the 1900's. We were unable to scan the 110 size negs as the scanner's holders can't really hold them flat enough. The scanner did an excellent job (I have to confess we used the Epson software for this job!) overall, even with some really flat and mushy originals: makes me think some early cheap cameras really did have bottle-bottoms for a lens.

When I was in school we just used a piece of glass to hold paper flat while exposing it. I wonder if that would work to hold negatives flat on the scanner bed?
Maybe cut out an appropriate sized hole in a piece of black construction paper to fit the 110 negatives and hold both down with the sheet of glass?
