The scanner needs to be calibrated and that has to be done with the
scanner door closed. But in order to scan you need to have a film holder
and the door open....

This problem might deserve a special solution but it was never implemented...

Meanwhile my solution was to make an empty scan (no film holder, door
closed), without setting the frame, which would of course fail (but only
after calibrating the scanner) before starting to do normal scans.
