There was a Polaroid model (Sprintscan 35) that could process a 35mm 
roll right away.

There  is the Pacific Image PrimeFilm 1800AFL 35mm Film Scanner

If Vuescan supports the scanners above there is a way to make contact 
sheets or the images loaded to one file and Qimage will be able to print 
a contact sheet with more choices in lay-out.

For better results you need recent Nikons etc.

Some Nikon 35mm models have optional parts to do teh same.

For 120 film there are only pro models like from Kodak that will do rolls.
