Important Safety Information

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

children to avoid any risk of suffocation.

Caution: When you replace the lamp, never touch the new lamp with your bare hands; the invisible residue left by

the oil on your hands may shorten the lamp life. Use a cloth or glove to handle the new lamp.

Welcome

The Epson® PowerLite®76c is an ultra-portable projector that offers

2000 ANSI lumens of brightness. From conference rooms to

auditoriums, your full-color presentations and videos will be bright

and visible even in ordinary indoor lighting.

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

Epson 3LCD technology ensures accurate color and remarkable

saturation, even in well-lit rooms. Support for S-Video contributes to

theater-quality performance.

You can connect the projector to a wide range of computers, including

IBM®-compatible PCs and laptops, 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.

You can use any of the following video sources: HDTV, VCR, DVD

player, gaming console (such as Microsoft®Xbox,

™Sony®

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

camera, or laser disc player. The projector supports NTSC, PAL, and

SECAM video formats.

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

The source buttons let you easily switch among them. With the

projector’s Source Search button, you don’t even have to identify

your input source. Just press the button until you see the image you

want on the screen.

To prevent unauthorized use of the projector, you can assign a

password, create a user logo which is displayed at startup to identify

the projector, and disable the projector’s buttons through the

Operation Lock feature. For more information about security features,

see page 63.

Getting the Most from Your Projector

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

of these options:

■Connecting to a laptop or other computer

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

computer, see page 18. For additional presentation control, you

can connect a 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 24 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 a USB cable to 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.
