Precautions

Lamp characteristics may rarely cause the brightness to ﬂuctuate slightly.

• The LCD panel is manufactured using high precision technology. There may be black spots

• (pixels that do not light) or bright spots (pixels that are constantly lit) on the panel. These are intrinsic characteristics of the manufacturing technology and are not malfunctions.

Notes

A lamp is a consumable item. If used for extended periods, images will appear dark, and

• the lamp could burn out. This is characteristic of a lamp, and is not malfunction. The lifetime of the lamp depends on conditions of use. Although this projector supports a wide range of RGB signals

• supported by this projector (XGA for X3241N, WXGA for WX3231N) will be expanded or shrunk, which will slightly affect image quality. To view high-quality images, set the computer’s external output to XGA for X3241N, WXGA for WX3231N. With some computer models having LCD or similar displays, displaying images

• simultaneously on the projector and the monitor’s display may prevent the images from displaying properly. If this happens, turn off the computer’s LCD display. For information on how to turn off the LCD display, see the computer’s owner’s manual. A “No signal” message will appear if no signal is being input from the connected

• equipment or if signal input is stopped while projecting. If a signal not supported by the projector is input, the “Unsupported signal” message

• will appear.

If an unavailable operation button is pressed, the icon will appear with a beep sound

• (if the beep sound is set to [On]).

Moving pictures played back on computers using DVD software may appear unnatural

LCD Panels

LCD panels wear out. In order to prolong the lifetime of your LCD panel, take the following precautions:

• To extend the lifetime of the LCD panel, always turn off the power when it is not in use, and make sure that the lamp is off. Keeping the lamp off will also save electricity.

• If the air ﬁlter becomes dirty and clogged, the projector’s internal temperature will rise, shortening the lifetime of the LCD panel and causing malfunctions. We recommend regular and thorough cleaning of the air ﬁlter

• If the air ﬁlter becomes damaged, replace it. Contact your sales representative for a new ﬁlter. If you continue to use the projector when its ﬁlter is damaged, dust and dirt will enter the interior and this could cause the projector to stop working or break down.

Communication mode



The wireless LAN of this projector supports both Ad hoc and Infrastructure Communication modes.

Ad hoc communication mode



This is the transmission mode to communicate between wireless LAN equipment. This mode is applicable, for example, to a presentation in the conference room, as it requires

no other facilities. This function can only be used if the projector is in range of the computer’s wireless signals. Ricoh does not guarantee the coverage of the radio wave in the form of ﬁgures. The coverage varies depending on the performance of each wireless LAN equipment, existence of obstacles or other wireless LAN equipment used by nearby working groups, etc. The coverage is generally estimated on the assumption that wireless LAN equipment be used in an unobstructed ofﬁce or conference room.

Infrastructure communication mode



To LAN Internet, etc.

Hub

Wireless LAN access point

A mixed wireless and wired LAN can be created

via wireless LAN access points. (Communications

between wireless LAN devices are also allowed.)

Connecting to the rest of the world via a wired

LAN or the Internet generally requires a high level

of security.

Use the appropriate transmission mode for your

network environment.

Network/

Caution when using the wireless LAN functions



The Wireless LAN in this unit uses the 2.4 GHz waveband. If there is a similar wireless LAN in the area, or a wireless device using the 2.4 GHz waveband, or a microwave oven, the communication efﬁciency of this apparatus will be reduced, and may become unusable, but it is not a fault. If this happens, check an area away from the current location that will not cause radio interference to medical, industrial and public equipment, and change to it, or stop using the unit.

Converting ﬁles created with Microsoft® PowerPoint



This process provides presentations without using a computer by converting presentation ﬁles created with Microsoft® PowerPoint® into JPEG ﬁles, storing them on a USB memory device, and displaying them in a slide show.

•

To use this conversion mode, Microsoft® PowerPoint® must be installed on the computer.

•

Only static images are supported by this process. Animation and audio are not supported. Presentation ﬁles created with Microsoft® PowerPoint® usually consist of several slides. For this reason, the tool creates a folder with the name speciﬁed in step (5), below, and ﬁle for each slide is created in the folder (starting with slide001.jpg).

Lamp replacement

A lamp is a consumable item. If used for extended periods, images will appear dark, and the lamp could burn out. This is characteristic of a lamp, and is not malfunction. (The lifetime of the lamp depends on condition of use.) If this happens, replace it with a new one.

WARNING

If the projector is mounted on the ceiling, it is strongly recommended that you

•

contact your sales representative when the lamp has to be exchanged. Do not attempt to replace the lamp by yourself.

If you uncover the lamp while the projector is mounted on a ceiling, there may be a danger of damage from falling pieces of glass if the lamp is broken, resulting in possible injury. In addition, working at high elevations can also be potentially hazardous. Do not attempt to replace the lamp by yourself.

Always use lamp “PJ Replacement Lamp Type1” (sold separately) when

•

replacing the lamp.

Using a lamp other than the one speciﬁed may cause a malfunction or damage to the unit due to the difference in the connector shape or the lamp rate.

CAUTION

If you have been using the projector, the lamp will be very hot, and may cause

• burn injuries. Wait 1 hour or longer for the lamp to cool before replacing it.

If the lamp should break, please handle with care to avoid injury due to broken

•

pieces and contact your sales representative for repair service.

Notes and Precautions

The [Lamp time] item in the Status display menu indicates the time of lamp use. (Use

• it as a rough estimate or guide for lamp life.) Please replace the lamp after 2000 hours of use if [Lamp power] in the Default setting

•

1 menu is set to [Standard], or after 3000 hours of use if [Lamp power] in the Default setting 1 menu is set to [Low].

There may be cases where the lamp stops working before the above mentioned period

• expires or before the replacement message is displayed. Attach the outer lamp cover correctly so that it is secure and not loose. If it is not

• attached correctly, the projector may fail to turn on or the lamp may fail to come on. Always replace the lamp with a new one.

• The lamp is made out of glass. Do not touch the glass surface with your bare hands, bang

• it, or scratch it. Since dirt, jolts, scratches and other similar particles may affect the lamp.

About lamp replacement messages

The lamp replacement message displays an appropriate period based on the

• use period selected in [Lamp power]. When the replacement time approaches, “The lamp life is ending. Please

• change the lamp.” message is displayed each time the power is turned on. The display disappears when you press the button.

Maintenance

Used Lamps

This projector’s lamp contains trace amounts of environmentally harmful inorganic mercury. Be careful not to break used lamps, and dispose of them in accordance with local regulations or contact your sales representative.

Clean the ﬁlter.

Carefully remove the dust and dirt from the air ﬁlter with a vacuum cleaner or the like.

Replace the air ﬁlter.

Insert the air ﬁlter ﬁrmly until you hear a click.

Notes

• When dirt and dust build up in the air ﬁlter, the air circulation inside the projector is affected and the internal temperature will rise, causing the projector to stop working or malfunction.

• Push the air ﬁlter fully in. If the projector is used with the air ﬁlter only partially inserted, dust and dirt will enter the interior and this could cause the projector to stop working or break down.

• If you wash the air ﬁler with water, make sure you dry it thoroughly before replacing it.
