Scanning a 35mm slide film and trying to get it a certain image size and resolution

Hi All,
I am using the Nikon Super CoolScan8000 and Vuescan program to scan a slide film. I am scanning at this setting: scan resolution 4000 dpi. I have to make it a certain dimension that someone has been asking me for. They want the image at Width = 60cm (approx. 23 inches) and 300 dpi.
When I scan at 4000 dpi, I'm not sure what size to make the printed width. I have experimented numerous times and I've had no luck with getting exactly what I want. It seems that when I make the width 60 cm (the height adjusts proportionately) and the dpi at 300, the quality is not that great, which it definitely needs to be because it will be printed at a large size.
Someone please help ASAP!
Thank you!
PS I am using Adobe Photoshop CS3 and I also have Adobe Photoshop Elements 9

You can only get 228 ppi out of the end product. That should be good enough.
