WARNING: Never look into the projector lens when the lamp is turned on; the bright light can damage your eyes.

Never let children look into the lens when it is on. Never open any cover on the projector, except the lamp and

filter covers. Dangerous electrical voltages inside the projector can severely injure you. Except as specifically

explained in this User’s Guide, do not attempt to service this product yourself. Refer all servicing to qualified service

personnel.

WARNING: The projector and its accessories come packaged in plastic bags. Keep plastic bags away from small

Welcome 1

Welcome

Your EPSON® PowerLite®51c or PowerLite 71c is a small,

lightweight, affordable projector offering powerful 3-LCD

performance and easy-to-use controls. Your projector weighs less than

7 pounds and displays full-color images at a resolution of up to

800 ×600 pixels (EPSON PowerLite 51c) or 1024 ×768 pixels

(EPSON PowerLite 71c).

Producing up to 1000 ANSI lumens (EPSON PowerLite 71c) or

1200 ANSI lumens (EPSON PowerLite 51c), your projector creates

bright images that can be easily seen in rooms light enough to take

notes.

You can connect it simultaneously to two image sources: a computer

and a video device, such as a VCR, DVD player, laser disc player,

camcorder, or digital camera. You can also connect audio for each

image source.

You can operate your projector through a hand-held remote control,

with buttons for zooming in on your image, adjusting volume, and

accessing all the projector’s features. You can also use the remote

control as a wireless mouse, and run your presentation as you move

around the room.

EPSON’s SizeWise™technology supports a range of computer

outputs, for a full-size image from just about any notebook PC or

PowerBook.®If you use a VCR or other video source, the projector

automatically senses the video format, so you can use it with

confidence no matter where in the world you travel.

The EPSON®PrivateLineSM Technical Support program will get you

help when you need it. A special 800 number and your own PIN will

connect you with a projector support specialist—fast.

Setting Up the Projector 5

Setting Up the Projector

This chapter tells you how to unpack your projector and set it up for a

presentation. The projector must be connected to a computer or a

video source such as a DVD player, VCR, camcorder, digital camera,

or other video device before it can project images.

To set up the projector, you need to:

■Unpack and position the projector

■Connect the projector to one or more input sources

Unpacking the Projector

Make sure you have all the parts shown:

Save all packaging in case you need to ship the projector. Always use

the original packaging (or the equivalent) when you need to send the

projector to another location. If you are moving the projector by

hand, use a carrying case (either an EPSON case or something similar,

such as a laptop case). See page 52 for transportation instructions.
