I have an Epson scanner and never got Newton rings using the scanner film
holder, sometimes, only sometimes, I got them scanning film on the glass
surface directly (I do it if the film is flat enough), even for these cases I
could reduce the number of scannings showing Newton rings cleaning the film
surface and the scanner glass surface carefuly despite they look clean, main
cause for Newton rings are dust, grease/oil and humidity on both or one of the
surfaces, I don't think film emulsion up or down have something to do with the
problem, except if one of the sides is cleaner than other; a simple dust speck
can cause a Newton ring if both surfaces have contact, however it never
happened to me using the film holder.
