Welcome

The Epson® Lite®821p is a portable projector that offers up to 2600

ANSI lumens of brightness. From classrooms to boardrooms, your

full-color presentations and videos will be bright and visible even in

ordinary indoor lighting. With its whisper-quiet operation,

ease-of-use, and quick start up and shut down, the PowerLite 821p

ensures that your presentations come off without a hitch.

Additionally, its built-in speaker delivers powerful 5 watt audio,

making it perfect for presentations in large rooms.

Images are displayed at a native resolution of 1024 ×768 pixels. The

PowerLite 821p delivers accurate color, superior color saturation, and

incredibly vivid images and clear text. Support for S-video contributes

to theater-quality performance.

You can connect the projectorto a wide range of computers, including

IBM®-compatible PCs and notebooks, Apple®Macintosh,

Power

Macintosh®series (including G3, G4, and G5 systems), PowerBook®

computers, and many iMac®and iBook®series systems. With Epson’s

patented SizeWise™technology, the projector supports computer

displays ranging from VGA through UXGA.

DVD player, gaming console (such as Microsoft®Xbox,™Sony®

PlayStation®2, and Nintendo GameCube™), camcorder, digital

camera, or laser disc player. The PowerLite 821p supports NTSC,

PAL, and SECAM video formats.

You can connect up to four devices to the projector at the same time.

The source buttons let you easily switch among them, and a dedicated

audio port for each source lets you automatically switch sound when

you switch video. With the projector’s Source Search button, you

don’t even have to identify your input source. Just press the button

repeatedly until you see the image you want on the screen.

Getting the Most from Your Projector

Depending on your presentation, you can take advantage of any or all

of these options:

■Connecting to a notebook or other computer

If you want to connect the projector to a notebook or desktop

computer, see page 16. For additional presentation control, you

can connect the USB cable to the projector for running slide

shows, and connect an external monitor to view the presentation

on your computer simultaneously.

■Connecting to video sources

You can connect a DVD player, VCR, HDTV, camcorder, laser

disc player, digital camera, and other video sources to your

projector. See page 22 for instructions.

■Using the remote control

The remote control lets you switch from computer to video

sources, zoom in on part of your image, freeze or mute the

presentation, and adjust many other projector features. For

details, see Chapter 3.

By connecting the USB mouse cable included with your

projector, you can also use the remote control as a wireless mouse.

This lets you click through computer-based presentations (such as

PowerPoint®) from up to 20 feet away. For more information, see

page 47.

■Including sound in your presentation

If your presentation includes sound, you can connect the audio

cable that came with your projector to use the projector’s built-in

speaker. See page 21.
