BRTDS620 - Brother DS-620 Sheetfed Scanner - 600 dpi Optical

Used this scanner for over a year - Plugged it into the laptop it Self Loaded the software - Ready to scan in ten minutes - Never Failed

The hardware is very nice and works well mechanically. Not so the software. After loading on the BR-receipts and Presto Page Manager for the Mac I could not get old scanning software to work on my multipurpose printer/scanner/fax. The BR-receipts is slow and doesn't indicate that anything is happening while its processing. After I fed in a Harbor Freight receipt, it took about 25 seconds of (what's happening?) frozen screen before it displayed the receipt. If I leave the program open and come back to it later, stick in a receipt and click on the scan icon, nothing happens. I need to close and restart the program. Setting up the templates for each vendor is simple, yet it has read a transaction number for a tax amount, and can't seem to pick up the payment type. Some of my problems may be a learning curve issue, but this is the most frustrating software I've used in a while.
