A 2400 dpi scan of a 35mm frame should give you a 7x10 of around 300 dpi. That should be hi-res enough to produce a nice print with no visible pixelation. In adjusting the size of your print in Photoshop, you have to make sure the box to "resample image" is not checked. This will preserve the original scan. I don't know anything about the Canon printer, but make sure your choosing the high res setting. It''s probably 1440.
