Digital BW, The Print

You shouldn't have any grain from Delta 100 film, nor should your prints
show any.

What printer are you using? The older epsons do have a dot pattern that
looks a lot like grain.

I seem to be getting fairly grainy results from B&W negs , at A4 and A3+ , even when using fine grained film[e.g.Delta100] which does not show much grain on the negs . Presumably I am introducing grain during scanning or something? Any ideas why this would happen and what I should do to avoid it?? I'm using a decent scanner [Nikon LS4000] and scanning at max res.....?
