See if there is a Trial Version.

One of the main benefits of old scanners, is the CCD based
ones (instead of CMOS sensor) have better depth of field
and most of the scans done on them will be in focus.
I have trouble on my CMOS based scanner, getting
the paper pressed hard enough to the screen for
a focused copy.
