I realized a while back that my Epson 1680 was probably out of focus (in
comparing with scans on someone else's scanner).  I've been just accepting
it, and not being too bothered.  (By the way, I just put film on the glass,
not in the holder.)

But I would like to fix the focus.  Has anyone tried to readjust the focus
for these scanners?  Is there a service manual out there?
