Useful Functions When a Computer is Connected
This section describes some of the useful functions that can be used when a computer is connected to the projector.
This function momentarily pauses the image and sound.
For example, it can be used when you do not want to show viewers details of operations such as selecting 
different files while computer images are being projected.
However, if you use this function when projecting moving images, the images and sound will still continue to 
be played back by the source, and you cannot return to the point where the mute function was activated.
ProcedurePress the [A/V Mute] button on either the 
remote control or the projectors control 
panel.
The image and sound will then be paused.
Press the [A/V Mute] button on either the remote 
control or the projectors control panel to 
continue normal projection.
This function pauses only the projected images. The sound keeps playing without pausing.
Furthermore, for moving pictures, the playback signal continues to be input even while the picture is paused, 
so playback will not resume from the point from where it was paused.
ProcedurePress the [Freeze] button on the remote 
control.
The images will then be paused.
To continue projecting the images, either press 
the [Freeze] button again or press the [Esc] 
button.

The default users logo is the EPSON logo. You can change the users logo by recording and 
setting your own logo. (p.51)

Troubleshooting
When Having Some Trouble
If you are having a problem with the projector, first check the projectors indicators.
The projector is provided with the following three indicators. These indicators alert you to problems with projector 
operation.
The following tables show what the indicators mean and how to remedy problems that they indicate.
    : lit   : flashing   : off
Indicator statusProjector statusProblem and remedyReference 
page
Internal problem Stop using the projector, disconnect the power cord from the 
electrical outlet, and contact your dealer or the nearest address 
provided at “International Warranty Conditions” in 
Safety 
Instructions/ World-Wide Warranty Terms included in the 
package.
Fan problem/Sensor 
problemStop using the projector, disconnect the power cord from the 
electrical outlet, and contact your dealer or the nearest address 
provided at “International Warranty Conditions” in 
Safety 
Instructions/ World-Wide Warranty Terms included in the 
package.
Lamp problem Replace the lamp with a new one.
When replacing the lamp, check that the lamp and the lamp cover 
are securely installed. If the lamp or lamp cover is not securely 
installed, the lamp will not turn on.p.48
Lamp operating 
errorIf the power cord plug is disconnected before the cool-down
 
had not completely finished before, this may happen the next 
time you try to turn on the lamp.
Wait for about 2 minutes without operating the projector. After 
about 2 minutes, the cooling fan will stop. When the cooling fan 
stops, disconnect the power plug and then re-insert it. When the 
power cord is plugged back in, the projector will return to its 
previous state, so press the [Power] button on either the remote 
control or the projectors control panel to turn it back on. 
If the lamp operating error happens again when the power is 
turned back on, remove the lamp and check if the lamp is broken. 
If it is not broken, reinstall it. If it is broken, replace it. Then 
press the [Power] button on either the remote control or the 
projectors control panel.
If the indicators still show a problem, stop using the projector, 
disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet, and contact 
your dealer or the nearest address provided at “International 
Warranty Conditions” in 
Safety Instructions/ World-Wide 
Warranty Terms included in the package.p.48

High temperature 
inside projector 
(overheating)The lamp will turn off automatically and projection will stop. 
Wait for about 5 minutes without operating the projector. After 5 
minutes have elapsed, the projector’s cooling fan will stop. Once 
the cooling fan has stopped, unplug the power cord and then plug 
it back in again.
If the projector overheats, check the following two points.
•
•• •Is the setting-up location well ventilated? 
Check that the air inlet and air outlet are clear, and that the 
projector is not positioned against a wall.
•
•• •Is the air filter blocked with dust? 
If the air filter is dirty, it should be cleaned.
When the power cord is plugged back in, the projector will return 
to its previous state, so press the [Power] button on either the 
remote control or the projectors control panel to turn it back on. 
If the projector continues to overheat even after the above points 
have been checked, or if the indicators show a problem when the 
power is turned back on, stop using the projector, disconnect the 
power cord from the electrical outlet, and contact your dealer or 
the nearest address provided at “International Warranty 
Conditions” in 
Safety Instructions/ World-Wide Warranty Terms 
included in the package.Setup Guide

again, projection will stop automatically.)

that the air inlet and exhaust vents are clear.
•
•• •Clean the air filter.Setup Guide
p.46
Lamp will soon need

Have a new replacement lamp ready.
The lamp service life can become shorter than normal as a result 
of the usage conditions, and so the lamp should be replaced as

period. When cool-down is complete, the   indicator will stop 
flashing and light orange. You can then use the [Power] button.p.9
•
