Teachers can use the Moderator software2 to simultaneously share students' work from multiple devices3.

1 Colour brightness (colour light output) and white brightness (white light output) will vary depending on usage conditions. Colour light output measured in accordance with IDMS 15.4; white light output measured in accordance with ISO 21118.

2 Moderator feature is part of Epson’s EasyMP Multi PC Projection software.

3 Check your owner's manual to determine if a wireless LAN module must be purchased separately to enable wireless connection on your Epson projector. Epson projectors can be networked either through the Ethernet port on the projector (check model specifications for availability) or via a wireless connection. Not all Epson projectors are able to be networked. Availability varies depending on model.

Basic Functions


3LCD Technology
3LCD Technology

All Epson projectors are based on 3-chip LCD technology for amazing colour, incredible detail and solid reliability. 3LCD's 3-chip architecture dedicates an entire chip to process each primary colour – red, green and blue, continuously. Unlike single-chip technology that delivers colour sequentially, you get full-time colour. The result is vibrant, realistic imagery and video all delivered with 3LCD's true-to-life colour.

3x Brighter Colours with Epson*
Up to 3x Brighter with Epson Projectors*

Epson projectors use 3LCD Engines that have no colour wheel with a white segment and therefore don't force a tradeoff between white and colour brightness.

All Epson projectors list both White Brightness and Colour Brightness specifications, and all have high Colour Brightness.

In fact, Epson projectors have up to 3x Brighter Colours than their leading competitive 1-chip DLP projectors*. If you are looking for business and education projectors or 720p home entertainment projectors, know that choosing Epson projectors means up to 3x brighter colours. If you are looking for 1080p home entertainment projectors, you consistently get 2x and up to 3x Brighter Colours than competitor 1-chip DLP projectors*.

* Compared to leading 1-chip DLP business and education projectors based on NPD data, July 2011 through June 2012. Colour brightness (colour light output) measured in accordance with IDMS 15.4. Colour brightness will vary depending on usage conditions.

Higher Brightness

With brightness up to 3300 lumens (selected models), the screen is easily viewed from anywhere in the classroom, even without dimming the lights.

Ultra Short Throw Benefits

Bigger Image

The ultra-short throw allows the projector to be positioned closer to the screen for reduced shadowing. This model can fill an 80-inch screen from just 47cm away.

Significantly Reduced Shadow Interference

You no longer need to worry about obscuring the information on screen with shadows cast by your body.


Non-Blinding

Even when you stand directly in front of the screen, the light rarely reaches your face. With no glare in your eyes, you'll find it far more pleasant and stress-free to be out front when using the projector.


 
Classroom Friendly Design

These Ultra Short Throw projectors are designed to blend in with office or classroom surroundings, even when wall mounted. The setting plate and cable cover keep cables out of sight.

Wide Ranging Interface

Not only does the wide-ranging interface correspond with conventional analogue sources, it is compatible with two types of HDMI sources as well for digital connections.

One of the HDMI input terminals is MHL (Mobile High Definition Link) certified for mirroring of Android and other mobile devices.


Mobile Device Compatibility

Using the optional wireless card in conjunction with Epson's iProjection app, you can also display and control content from your iPad, iPhone, iPod and Android devices.

EASY INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE


Cloning Function

When dealing with multiple projectors, it is now possible to copy the OSD menu settings for things like user logos or colour modes and transfer the settings to multiple machines via USB/network. This function will help reduce set-up and installation time.

Easy Installation and Adjustment

Epson's original mounting plate has been re-designed for improved installation and set-up. For fine adjustment, all six axes can be individually corrected using the adjustment dials on the plate. Improvements on the mounting plate include larger cable cutouts, center line indicator and ruler on both sides of the mounting arm.

Lamp Regulator Function

This newly added function automatically adjusts image brightness according to ambient light levels and image content. This feature helps reduce the load on the lamp and conserves electricity.

Table Top Projection

These projectors can also project vertically downward, enabling users to transform any table top into a viewing surface. By utilising the optional ELP-MB29 table mount, an ordinary table becomes an exciting surface.

Longer Lamp Life

The long 10,000 hours lamp life# saves time and money by reducing the frequency of costly lamp replacements. When you do need to replace the lamp, it will only cost $79 inc GST.




Periodic cleaning allows Epson projectors to be used for much longer intervals. The maintenance cycle for the air filter is approximately 5000 hours.

Scroll through pages


Zoom in on pages or enlarge images


Move, rotate, enlarge or even use your finger as an eraser

Multi PC Projection with Moderator Function

The Multi-PC Projection feature allows a network of up to 50 PCs to be connected to a single projector. The newest version of this feature allows a host PC to act as a Moderator who can then select up to 4 of the connected devices to be projected on the screen. It is also possible to annotate on the screen image. The Moderator function allows the user to control what image is projected on the screen and prevent tampering.

Multi Use Interactivity

Two people can write simultaneously on the interactive area using 2 pens.

For the EB-595Wi model with finger touch interactivity, users can annotate on the screen with pens or a combination of pens and fingers.

On Screen Projector Operation

PC-less Interactive Functionality

Interactive functionality is also available without a PC connection, so drawing on the projected screen is now possible when connected to other devices such as document camera or DVD player etc. Even when there is no input source, you can annotate on the screen like a whiteboard.

Table Top Projection

These projectors can also project vertically downward, enabling users to transform any table top into an interactive surface By utilising the optional ELP-MB29 table mount, an ordinary table becomes an engaging platform for interaction and collaboration.
