Can this model scan 35mm negatives?

You need an actual Scanner for scanning negatives.

There is no "back light" on a regular printer to shine light through the little negatives.

 

What else?

You can build a device that might work for what you want.

This device is not designed to scan negatives. Scanners capable of this will come with a backlight to illuminate the negative.
