Thank you and a follow-up:
Scan 640 by 480 at what resolution? 96spi as for the web? More or less
than that? The 640, then, would stretch across the screen or would it fill
only a part of the screen?
My son said they can scroll the screen so the 480 height should work out

I have now tried Kodak Supra 400 and, on the LS-30 at 2700spi it scans
