    Here's a link to many devices that allow you to do that.

    I haven't tried it yet but it looks easy enough.
    I tried this and couldn't get any quality from it. I bought a used device off ebay that will do the job. I've only done a few but so far so good. I did order but haven't used a cleaner as many of my slide are old and have spots which I'm hoping this cleaner will take off and make for a better scan.
