Updated Scanner Drivers for Mac Catalina

I just updated my Mac OS Mojave to Catalina and now my scanner driver ImageAcquire is not working. I really need to use my scanner for scanning drawings and also scanning papers for my parents.

My scanner is a Mustek Flatbed Scanner SE A3 USB 1200 Pro (It's big enough to scan comic board paper) and I've been looking for drivers that is compatible with Catalina.

Does anyone else have this problem too and do you know if there's any updated scanner drivers?

I haven't tried this solution yet but it was mentioned on another forum here.

If you go to Mustek's download page and search for your scanner, they should have a download called ScanMust that's made for Catalina (MacOS 10.15)

I'm still on Mojave so I haven't tried it yet. Let me know if it works, and good luck!

EDIT: I have the SE A3 USB 1200 Pro (Which I find many comic artists also have) and it DOES NOT work with ScanMust. Unfortunately.

I couldn't find a MAC driver for my scanner. So I had to move it to a PC in another room which I was able to use since there's a PC driver. I have an Epson scanner hooked up to my MAC since there's a driver for it since it's a newer model. Only problem is that it's smaller so it won't scan comic book board/comic strip paper which are 11x17in/5x17in.
