How is SE tax calculated on mixed income?

SE tax applies only to your 1099/freelance income, not W-2 wages (which already have FICA withheld). The tool calculates this automatically.

Should I itemize or use the standard deduction?

The tool uses whatever deduction amount you enter. If your itemized deductions exceed the standard deduction, enter the higher amount.
