Thanks, but I had exhausted that avenue before my post. The 2450 is
sufficiently different that the directions were no help. Further down
in the yahoo groups thread the guy admitted that he broke the circuit
board that connects the front panel switches.

I'm afraid that jocular though it was, Paul Heslop's advice a couple
posts back to take a hammer to it may be the best way.

Subject says it. The underside of the glass has developed a cloudy film
and I'd like to clean it. Epson is, of course, no help, "Do not
disassemble the scanner," is the advice in the manual.

Any ideas?

TIA, Vince

Google is your friend: I used the search: "how to clean glass epson scanner"
without quotes.

This is a link to cleaning a epson 2450, maybe your scanner is similar.
