What Lumen is right for me?
Make sure your Epson projector has the correct amount of Lumens for its environment, application and size of screen, audience. Westcon Mobility’s quick guide tables oposite will have you select the correct level of lumens for your requirement.
• For a business application, which is projecting a presentation onto a 4:3 ratio 72 x 96inch screen, in an open plan offi ce, select an Epson projector with at least 2200 lumens for the best results. • For a house of worship application, projecting video and images onto a 4:3 ratio 200inch screen, in building having the windows covered, holding up to 400 seats select an Epson projector with at least 3000 lumens.

Epson’s 3LCD system works differently, using a combination of dichroic mirrors to separate the white light from the projector lamp into red, green and blue light. Each of the three light colours is then passed through its own LCD panel and recombined using a prism before being projected onto the screen.
With 1-chip DLP technology, colour break-up or the ‘rainbow effect’ can sometimes be seen. This occurs when the eye perceives the individual colours, and is a result of the colours being projected sequentially by the colour wheel. Epson’s 3LCD technology avoids this by including all three basic colours in each pixel of the projection, delivering superior Colour Light Output that’s easier on the eyes.
3LCD technology is used in every Epson projector, giving outstanding results for home cinema, classroom teaching, digital signage and business presentations.
ABOUT EPSON’S PROJECTOR TECHNOLOGY ABOUT EPSON’S PROJECTOR TECHNOLOGY
3LCD A CLEAR DIFFERENCE
As the number one projector manufacturer in Europe1, Epson leads the market in the development of projector technology. Epson projectors use a 3LCD projection engine to deliver bright, clear images that are rich in detail and colour.
Many of Epson’s competitors use 1-chip DLP™2 projector systems, which create thousands of pulses of coloured light per second. They do this by shining lamp light through red, green, blue and white3 parts of a rotating colour wheel. These light pulses are then refl ected by a DMD™4 device, which is on a hinge and has a tiny mirror for each pixel of the image.
The series of rapid colour bursts is then projected onto the screen. The viewer’s brain can’t pick out the individual fl ickers - it mixes the basic colours that appear in succession in each pixel to come up with the fi nal colour the viewer sees.
3LCD technology provides superb image quality with smooth and natural colour reproduction.

ABOUT EPSON’S PROJECTOR TECHNOLOGY
MORE POWER USING LESS ENERGY
TOTAL CONVENIENCE
E-TORL
EasyMP™
Epson E-TORL lamps deliver exceptional brightness while using less energy. They do this by using a unique confi guration of refl ectors to capture light that is usually lost with other manufacturers’ lamps. This improved effi ciency means that Epson E-TORL lamps are better for both budgets and the environment.
Epson EasyMP is a suite of projector features designed to make life easier. EasyMP Monitor allows a fl eet of up to 1,092 projectors to be monitored and maintained from a single point on a wireless or local network. Saving time and hassle, EasyMP Monitor uses a web browser to generate email alerts on temperature, air fi lter and lamp status.
This keeps projector technicians informed of any problems or potential issues and removes the need for physical checks. The system can even send a lamp-life warning message to the person responsible for purchasing lamps. EasyMP Monitor can help save energy and lamp life by allowing projectors to be remotely switched on and off at preprogrammed times.
• EasyMP Network Presentation enables up to four projectors to be connected to one PC via a wired or wireless connection.• EasyMP PC-Free allows USB devices to be connected to projectors for easy presenting without the need for a PC.
The easiest way to project from a PC: 2-in-1 USB display
A single USB cable, connecting the projector to your PC, combine the functions of display and PageUp/Down, halving the number of cables you need.
Connection to the Epson Visualiser
Project documents and objects directly just by plugging in the new Epson Visualiser via a USB cable*.
