I'm ot trying to be a smartass or anything, but: You want to scan
negatives with a printer? Because a printer is the only thing I come
up with when I look for for "canon 9500".
I think you might have mistyped your scanner model, or I just didn't
look around enough.
Otherwise, good luck. Just don't try to run any valuable negs through
any kind of printer. That would probably not produce the result you
are looking for. Heh heh.

I'm not sure about the dimensions of 125 film, but I have used a Canon
flatbed scanner to scan 110 format film. There is no holder for this size,
but I've had pretty good luck by inserting one end of a 110 strip under the
edge of the holder for 120 film, and then scanning it as a color positive.
Then afterwards, with Photoshop Elements I cut out the individual negatives
from the scanned strip, run auto color correction and auto levels on them,
and then invert them to positive images and adjust as necessary. Much more
labor intensive than scanning 35 mm, or slides or 120, but it can be done. >> Stay informed about: Scanning old film |

Can't you just make a holder by cutting the appropriate sized holes in a
piece of poster board?

Easy enough to look up: <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_format>
125 roll film 3¼" × 5½"

FWIW - Epson has some models which scan medium and larger format
negatives. I have used an Epson Perfection 4490 photo to scan medium
format. Purchased it from the Epson online store for about $125 a year
and a half ago. >> Stay informed about: Scanning old film |

My Canon 8400F has such a holder, but I think the posterboard (or shirt
cardboard, if such still exists) would do just as well. Incidentally,
it did a great job on old 120 and 620 negatives as well as 2x2
Ektachrome slides -- Ektachrome is NOT noted for its color permanence
