Important Safety Information
WARNING: Never look into the projector lens when the lamp is turned on; the bright light can damage your eyes.
Never let children look into the lens when it is on. Never open any cover on the projector, except the lamp and
filter covers. Dangerous electrical voltages inside the projector can severely injure you. Except as specifically
explained in this User’s Guide, do not attempt to service this product yourself. Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel.
WARNING: The projector and its accessories come packaged in plastic bags. Keep plastic bags away from small
children to avoid any risk of suffocation.
Caution: When you replace the lamp, never touch the new lamp with your bare hands; the invisible residue left by
the oil on your hands may shorten the lamp life. Use a cloth or glove to handle the new lamp.

16 Setting Up the Projector
Unpacking the Projector
After unpacking the projector, make sure you have all these parts:
Save all packaging in case you need to ship the projector. Always use
the original packaging (or the equivalent) when you need to send the
projector to another location. If you are moving the projector by
hand, use the projector handle. See page 131 for transportation
instructions.
note
If you mount the projector
on the ceiling, the interface
and button names on the
projector will appear upside
down. Attach the interface
label stickers so that you can
more easily read the names.

Additional Components
Depending on how you plan to use the projector, you may need
additional components:
To receive an HDMI signal from your video device, you’ll need
an HDMI cable. One may be provided with your video
equipment.
To receive a component video signal from a VCR or other video
device, you’ll need a component video cable. One may be
provided with your video equipment.
To receive an RGB or component video signal from a video
device that has RGB or component (PrPbY or CrCbY)
connectors, you’ll need a BNC-type video cable. One may be
included with your video equipment.
To receive an S-video signal, you’ll need an S-video cable. One
may be included with your video equipment, or you can purchase
one from Epson. See “Optional Accessories” on page 12.
To receive a signal from your computer’s USB port, you’ll need a
USB cable. You can purchase one from Epson. See “Optional
Accessories” on page 12.
Positioning the Projector
If the projector isn’t already installed in the room youre using, you’ll
probably want to place it on a table in front of the screen. This lets
you stand in the front of the room, face the audience, and remain
close enough to the equipment to be able to control it. Try to leave as
much space as possible between the projector and the screen to get a
good-size image.
Use the illustrations on page 18 to help you determine placement.
Image size increases with distance, but can vary depending on how
you position the zoom ring and whether you’ve adjusted the image
with other settings.
note
You can mount the projector
on the ceiling, or place it
behind a translucent screen
for rear projection. See
page 149 for details.

Also keep these considerations in mind:
Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface.
Make sure there is plenty of space for ventilation around and
under the projector.
Make sure the projector is within 10 feet (3 meters) of a grounded
electrical outlet or extension cord.

Setting Up the Projector 19
Ideally, you should place the projector directly in front of the center of
the screen, facing it toward the screen squarely. The base of the lens
should be about level with the bottom of the screen.
If you place the projector below screen level, you can use the vertical
lens shift dial to raise the lens (see page 46). You can also tilt the
projector up by extending the front adjustable foot. Tilting the
projector causes the image to become “keystone” shaped, but you can
correct the distortion (see page 47).
For instructions on installing the projector in a permanent location,
such as a theater or conference room, see page 149.
Connecting to a Computer
You can connect the projector to any computer that has a standard
video output (monitor) port, including desktop models, PC notebook
computers, MacBook, PowerBook, and iBook computers, and
hand-held devices.
You can also connect a Windows® computer to the Type B USB port
on the projector (see page 21). This allows you to connect an
additional computer to the projector.
If you have the optional wireless mouse receiver, you can use your
remote control as a wireless mouse when projecting from a computer
(page 56).
note
After positioning the
