he compact, lightweight EPSON EMP-7300 Projector
allows you to project XGA full-color images and video onto a
large screen for presentations. The projector can connect
simultaneously to three image sources: two PC or Apple®
Macintosh® computer image sources plus on video source
such as a video tape deck, camcorder, or digital camera. Audio
can also be connected for each image source.
Images are displayed in XGA compatible full color
(16,670,000 colors) at a resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels. The
projector produces bright images that can be easily seen in
rooms with enough light to take notes. Audio can be
produced from the projector’s 3+3W speakers, which employ
a built-in 3D sound® for output that is rich and powerful. An
external speaker can also be connected when further
amplification is required.

A totally new AVTSS™ (Automatic Video Tracking and
Synchronization Sensing, patent pending) provides automatic
set-up of image from a computer with a touch of the AUTO
button for quick and easy projection of beautiful images every
time.
The projector can be controlled using a hand-held remote
control unit, with menus being provided for image source
switching and image adjustment. The remote control can also
be used as a wireless mouse to control mouse operations on
the computer screen during presentations. The ELP LINK

III™ software that comes with the projector provides a
number of add-on features that are designed to make
presentations more effective.
The projector also features a new patented AIrR™ (Advanced
Image real-time Resizer) chip which supports XGA computer
output, as well as VGA and SXGA output. Whichever type of
computer output is used, the result is a full-size video image
of outstanding clarity.
The EMP-7300 Projector supports IBM-compatible PCs and
laptops, as well as Apple® Macintosh®, Power Macintosh and
PowerBook computers. The video source can be NTSC, PAL
or SECAM in composite video, S-Video format.

Getting the Most Out of Your Projector
The projector comes with a full set of features that allow you
to control the settings for the image display, video and audio.
To get the most out of your projector read this section for a
quick summary of the important features.
Remote control
The buttons on the remote control allow you to turn the
projector on and off, an provide direct access to auto set-up,
blank, freeze, volume, mute and image source switching.
Remote control buttons can also be used for custom functions
and to access the projector’s menu system. The remote
control can even be used instead of your computer’s mouse to
control your computer.
Sleep mode
The sleep mode conserves electricity by automatically turning
off the lamp if the projector does not receive video input
signal for specified period (default is 30 minutes). In the sleep
mode, the projector remains on but the lamp is turned off,
conserving electricity, cooling the projector and extending the
life of the lamp.
Use the Power button to turn the projector on and off.

your computer and a video source, or set up the projector for
one or more of the following:
• Connect the mouse cable to use the remote control as a
wireless mouse.
• Provide audio for one or both image sources. The audio
source can be the computer, video source, or another
device such as a stereo.
• Connect to an external speaker or PA system to amplify the
audio.
