Positioning the Projector
Follow these guidelines to get the best results when projecting:
❏ Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface, between
2.5 and 38 feet from the screen.
❏ Make sure there is plenty of space for ventilation around and
under the projector.
❏ Make sure the projector is within 10 feet of a grounded
electrical outlet or extension cord and within 5 feet of the
image source.
❏ Face the projector squarely toward the screen.
The projector supports 5 viewing setups, as shown below. If it is
installed in a rear or overhead position, you need to select the
correct
Projection option from the Setting menu after you turn
it on. If you mount the projector on the ceiling, professional
installation is recommended.
Table
Convenient for temporary front
projection. Choose
the menu.
Shelf
Attach the three rubber feet that
came with the projector to the
top of the projector, then turn the
projector upside-down. Choose
Front/Ceiling from the menu.
Ceiling
Professional installation
recommended. Choose
Front/Ceiling from the menu.
(You can purchase ceiling mounting
equipment from EPSON; see page
12.)

For permanent installation behind a
translucent screen. Choose

Rear
Image Size and Projection Distance
The distance between the projector and the screen determines
the size of the projected image, as shown below. Because other
adjustments—such as those made with the
Aspect button—
also affect the size of the image, the numbers shown in the
illustration should be considered as general guidelines, not exact
measurements.
Use the formulas given below either to find out how large your
image will be when you know the distance from the projector to
the screen, or to find out how far from the screen to place the
projector when you want an image of a certain size. Since the
size of the image can be changed by rotating the zoom ring,
formulas are given for both the minimum and maximum sizes.
To determine the diagonal size of an image when you know the
projection distance:
Minimum diagonal size = (0.39421 × projection distance) +
1.2116
Maximum diagonal size = (0.25690 × projection distance) +
0.69164
To determine the projection distance when you know the
diagonal size of the screen image:
Projection distance = (minimum diagonal screen size ×
2.5367) - 3.0735
Projection distance = (maximum diagonal screen size ×
3.8925) - 2.6922
Rear/Ceiling
Professional installation behind a
translucent screen recommended.

(You can purchase special ceiling
mounting equipment from EPSON;

If the projector is tilted in the front or the back, you may need
to adjust the image shape. See page 5.

Turning the Projector On and Off
Once you’ve connected the projector to your computer or other
equipment, follow these instructions to turn it on and display
an image:
1. Make sure the power is turned off for the projector and any
sources connected to it.
2. Remove the lens cover.
3. Connect one end of the power cord to the projector and plug
the other end into a grounded electrical outlet.
The P
Power light on the projector turns orange, indicating
that the projector is receiving power, but is not yet turned
on.
Orange
Note: The projector will not respond to any buttons on the
control panel or remote control while the power light is
flashing orange.
4. If you are connecting to video equipment, turn it on now. (If
you are connecting to a computer, don’t turn it on yet.)
5. Press the P
of the projector to turn on the projector.
You hear a beep, the P
projector warms up, and the projection lamp comes on in
about 45 seconds.
6. If you are using a computer, turn it on now.
The projector automatically detects the video source and begins
projecting.
If you don’t see a picture, make sure the P power light on the
projector is green and not flashing, and the lens cover is off.
Also, make sure your cable is connected to both the projector
and your video equipment, and the video equipment is on. If
you still don’t see a picture, see the suggestions in the
Troubleshooting section on page 6.

5. To change the picture’s aspect ratio (ratio between length
and height), press the
Aspect button on the remote control
to move through these options:
❏
Normal
Maintains the aspect ratio of the image source and the
projected image on a 16:9 (wide-screen format) screen;
when images output in 4:3 format are projected, black
bands appear on the sides, but the image’s normal aspect
ratio is maintained.
❏
Squeeze
Best for projecting wide-screen format (16:9) images;
when images output in 4:3 format are projected, they are
elongated horizontally.
❏
Zoom
Crops images ouput in 4:3 format at the top and bottom
and projects them in 16:9 format.
Note: Standard images have an aspect ratio of 4:3, and
HDTV and DVD images have an aspect ratio of 16:9.

Replacing the Lamp
The projection lamp typically lasts for about 2000 hours of use.
(If you use
lamp lasts about 3000 hours.) It is time to replace the lamp
when:
❏ The projected image gets darker or starts to deteriorate.
❏ The warning light on top of the projector flashes red at
0.5-second intervals.
❏ The message
you start projecting. To maintain projector brightness and
image quality, replace the lamp as soon as possible after you
see the message.

Note: To view the number of hours your lamp has been used, check
the Info menu.
Warning: Be very careful when removing the lamp. Let the lamp
cool before replacing it. If the lamp breaks, handle the shards
carefully to avoid injury. In the unlikely event that the bulb has
ruptured, small glass fragments may be present and should be
removed with caution. If your projector is mounted on the ceiling,
you should unmount it. This will make it easier for you to replace
the lamp and minimize the chance of any small glass fragments
dropping from the projector.
