Projector Features
Ease of use when installed on a ceiling mount
Centered lens
The lens is positioned in the center of
the projector so it is well balanced
and is easy to mount on a ceiling.
This also makes it easy to line up the
screen and the projector.
Equipped with electric lens shift, zoom and focus functions
The lens shift function allows you to adjust the position of the projected
image along the horizontal and vertical axes which opens up a wide variety
of installation locations.
The lens shift, zoom, and focus functions can be operated with a remote
control so operation is easy even if the projector is mounted on the ceiling.
Six optional lenses are available
You can select the best lens
according to the projection distance
and purpose. All the optional lenses
are bayonet-type which allows you
to simply and easily replace and
install the optional lenses.
Horizontal and vertical installation possible
The projector can be pointed either
up or down to project images on the
floor or ceiling. This makes it an
effective communication tool that
lets you express your ideas with
great impact.
A design that harmonizes with the surrounding environment,
and makes the installation easy
The projector's sophisticated design
has a cable cover in which cables are
hidden for a clean exterior
appearance.
The bar type handles are designed to
make moving and installing the
projector easy so it can be handled
safely. The ceiling mount is attached
to these handles when you mount
the projector on the ceiling. The
projector does not need to be turned
upside down so installation is easy.
The initial settings can be easily set
as you look at the screen because the
control panel is located on the back
of the projector.
Projector Features

Easy maintenance
You can replace the lamp by opening a cover and pulling it straight out of
the back of the projector without using a screwdriver.
There is only one air filter so cleaning and replacement are easy. The lamp
and air filter can be safely replaced even when mounted on the ceiling
because their covers do not fall off even if you release them.
Reliability you can depend on
The projector is equipped with two lamps. Even if one of the lamps
breaks, you can continue projecting with the other lamp and avoid
disrupting important presentations.
Large Projection Area and Precise Colors
Equipped with a high-resolution WUXGA panel (PowerLite Pro
Z8000WUNL only)
You can project a large amount of
information on the screen. Viewers
can see the information at a glance
without having to scroll or switch
screens.
Epson Cinema Filter supports the color gamut for digital cinema.
Select Theater or sRGB in Color Mode to use Epson Cinema Filter for 100%
reproduction of the color gamut used for digital cinema. As a result, this
reproduces colors that are full and deep.
Precise color adjustments
As well as Color Mode, you can also adjust the image's absolute color
temperature and the strength of each RGB color. Also, you can adjust the
hue, saturation, and brightness of R, G, B, C, M, and Y.
Projector Features

Enhanced security functions
Password Protect to restrict and manage users
By setting a Password you can restrict who can use the projector.
Control Panel Lock restricts button operation on the Control
panel.
You can use this to prevent people from changing projector settings
without permission at events, in schools, and so on.
Equipped with various theft deterrent devices
The projector is equipped with the following types of theft deterrent
security devices.
• Security slot
• Security cable installation point
Easy to handle
Using the projector over a network (PowerLite Pro
Z8050WNL only)
You can use the included software to deliver presentations and meetings
over a network. See your Network Operation Guide for more
information.
Connect to the projector from computers via a network
You can use your existing network to share the projector from multiple
computers. Documents can be projected from each computer without
having to change any cables during meetings or presentations. Also, you
don't have to worry about the distance between the computer and the
projector.
Connecting wirelessly to a computer
When you install the optional Wireless 802.11a/b/g Module in the projector,
you can connect wirelessly to a computer.
Direct power On/Off
In places where power is managed centrally, such as in a conference room,
the projector can be set to power on and off automatically when the power
source to which the projector is connected is switched on or off. s p.74
No cool down delay
After turning the projector's power off, you can disconnect the projector's
power cable without having to wait for the projector to cool down.

Positioning the Projector
Positioning the Projector
If the projector isn’t already installed in the room you’re 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 and tables below to help you determine placement. Image size increases with distance, but can vary depending on which lens you’re
using and whether you’ve adjusted the image with zoom or any other settings.
