Positioning the Projector
note
You can mount the projector
on the ceiling, or place it
behind a translucent screen
for rear projection. See
page 81 for details.
If the projector isn’t already installed in the room you’re using, you’ll
probably want to place it on a table in front of the screen, as shown.
This lets you stand in the front of the room, face the audience, and
remain close enough to the equipment to be able to control it. Try to
leave as much space as possible between the projector and the screen to
get a good-size image.
Use the figure below to help you determine placement. Image size
increases with distance, but can vary depending on how you position
the zoom ring and whether you’ve adjusted the image with other
settings.
TBD
33.1 to 39.7 ft
6.6 to 7.9 ft
3.2 to 3.9 ft
Distance from screen
Also keep these considerations in mind:
■
■
Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface.
Make sure there is plenty of space for ventilation around and
under the projector. Do not set the projector on top of anything
that could block the vents under the projector.
■
Make sure the projector is within 10 feet of a grounded electrical
outlet or extension cord.
14 Displaying and Adjusting the Image

Ideally, you should place the projector directly in front of the center of
the screen, facing it toward the screen squarely. The base of the lens
should be at about the level of the bottom of the screen.
note
After positioning the
connect a Kensington
MicroSaver® anti-theft
device to the lock port on the
projector’s left side. You can
purchase this from Epson;
see page 11.
Projector
Screen
If you place the projector below screen level, you’ll have to tilt it up by
“keystone” shaped, but you can correct the distortion by pressing the
buttons on the projector. See page 22 for detailed information about
correcting the image shape.
For instructions on installing the projector in a permanent location,
such as a theater or conference room, see page 81.

Projecting the Image
Make sure your projector and other equipment are set up as described
on page 35. Then follow the instructions below to start the projector
and display an image.
Turn on any connected computer or video equipment before starting
the projector so it can automatically detect and display the image
source. If you turn on the projector first, or have multiple pieces of
connected equipment, you may have to select the image source
manually (see page 17).
note
To shut down the projector,
see page 24. Shutting down
the projector correctly
prevents premature lamp
failure and possible damage
from overheating.
Follow these steps to turn on the projector:
1. Remove the lens cap.
2. Plug one end of the power cable into the projector, and the other
end into an electrical outlet.
The Power light comes on.

3. Press the red PPower button on the remote control or on top of
the projector.
warning
The projector beeps once and the Power light flashes green as the
projector warms up, then an image begins to appear. When the
Power light stops flashing and remains green, the projector is
ready for use.
Never look into the lens
when the lamp is on. This
can damage your eyes, and is
especially dangerous for
children.
4. If you’ve connected a Windows®-based computer to the
projector, you may see a New Hardware Wizard screen saying
your computer has found a plug-and-play monitor; if so, click
Cancel.
5. If you are prompted to enter a password, see page 52.
Selecting the Image Source
note
Selecting the image source lets you switch between images input from
different pieces of connected equipment (such as a computer or DVD
player).
To focus and adjust the
image, see page 21. If a
projected image fails to
appear, see page 18 for help.
If you don’t see the image you want, press the Source Search button
on the projector or the Search button on the remote control until
you see the image you want to project.
You can also use the Source buttons on the remote control to switch
between devices connected to the ports identified on each button. The
TM
PowerLite 740c does not support EasyMP.

the projection screen and on your computer at the same time, follow
these guidelines.
If you’re using a PC notebook:

On most systems, there’s a function key that lets you toggle
between the LCD screen and the projector, or display on both at
the same time. It may be labeled CRT/LCD or have an icon such as

Focusing and Zooming Your Image
Turn the focus ring on the projector to sharpen the image.
Turn the zoom ring on the projector to reduce or enlarge the image.
If the image still isn’t large enough, you may need to move the
projector farther away from the screen. You can also use the E-Zoom
buttons on the remote control to zoom in on a portion of the image.
See page 31 for instructions.
Adjusting the Image Shape
In most cases, you can maintain a square or rectangular image by
placing the projector directly in front of the center of the screen with
the base of the lens level with the bottom of the screen.
Even if the projector is slightly tilted (within a range of 30° up or
down), the projector has an automatic keystone correction function
that detects and corrects vertical keystone distortion.

It takes about one second after projection starts for the image to be
corrected. During this time, a vertical keystone correction gauge
appears on the screen.

If your image is still distorted, you can correct it using the Keystone
buttons on the projector’s control panel or the projector’s Setting
menu.

Using Keystone Correction
To adjust your image when it is wider on the top or bottom, do the
following:

Press one of the two triangular buttons on the projector’s control
panel, as shown below. Continue pressing the button until you
are satisfied with the shape of the image.
note

the menu system to perform
keystone correction, then use
the remote’s Resize button
to adjust the aspect ratio. See
page 32.
■
Or press the Menu button on the remote control or projector,
select the Setting menu, and press Enter.
From the Setting menu, select Keystone and press Enter. Use
the
pointer button on the remote control to adjust the
keystone setting as needed.
If the image becomes uneven, decrease the sharpness setting. (See
page 49.)

Resizing Video images
You can use the Resize button on the remote control to adjust how
an image fits into the display area.
For video images, press Resize to switch the aspect ratio between 4:3
and 16:9. This lets you play certain digital video images or movies

For computer images, resizing is normally unnecessary, since the
projector automatically resizes the image to make the best use of the
display area. If you press the Resize button on the projector or remote
control, the projector displays the image at the output resolution of
the computer (which makes the image larger or smaller, depending on
its resolution). If the resolution of the image is the same as the
projector’s (1024 × 768), pressing Resize has no effect.
Adjusting the Color Mode
You can use the Color Mode button on the remote control to adjust
the vividness of your image.
Press the button repeatedly to select from the following six settings:
■

saying your computer has
found a plug-and-play
monitor; if so, click Cancel.
You can connect the PowerLite projector to any computer that has a
standard video output (monitor) port, including desktop models,
PC notebook and notebook computers, Macintosh PowerBooks and
®
Component Video port (standard VGA cable connection), see the
instructions below. After connecting to the computer, you may also
want to do one of the following:
■
Connect a USB cable so you can use the remote control as a
mouse; see page 38
■
Connect an audio cable to play computer audio; see page 44
note
For newer PowerBooks with
DVI connectors, see your
computer’s documentation
to see how to use a DVI to
VGA adapter (usually
included with the computer)
to connect to the VGA
computer port.
Connecting to the Computer Port
You can connect to the blue Computer/Component Video port
using the VGA computer cable that came with the projector (the
monitor port on your computer must be a mini D-sub 15-pin port).
1. If you’re using the VGA computer cable, connect one end to the
projector’s blue Computer/Component Video port, and the
other end to your computer’s monitor port. Then go to step 3.
If you’re using an older
Macintosh and you can’t
connect the cable to your
computer, you may need to
use the Macintosh desktop
adapter, as shown on
page 37 (available from
Epson; see page 11).
caution
Don’t try to force a
connector to fit a port with a
different shape or number of
pins. You may damage the
port or connector.
2. You can connect an optional stereo mini-jack audio cable to play
sound through the projector (see page 44), or connect a USB
cable to use the remote control as a mouse (see page 38).

cable may not fit when you try to connect it. If so, you’ll need to use
the Macintosh desktop adapter to connect the VGA cable to your
computer. This is available from Epson (see page 11).
1. To use the adapter, remove its cover as shown and set its DIP
switches according to the resolution you want to use, such as
16-inch mode. See your Macintosh documentation for
instructions.
2. Replace the cover and connect the adapter
to the VGA cable. Then plug the cable
(with the adapter) into the video port on
your Macintosh.

It’s a good idea to write
down your password.
If you leave the projector
plugged in, the Password
Protect Release screen will
not appear. You only need a
password if you unplug and

Projector Installation
This appendix provides guidelines on installing the projector in a
permanent location, such as a theater or conference room.
The projector can be installed for four different viewing setups: front
projection, ceiling mounting, rear projection onto a semi-transparent
screen, or rear/ceiling projection, as shown:
Front projection
Rear projection
Ceiling mounting
Rear/ceiling projection
hardware; see page 11 for ordering information. You’ll also need to
select Front/Ceiling or Rear/Ceiling as the Projection option of the
projector’s Extended menu to flip the image upside-down. To project
from the rear, onto a semi-transparent screen, select Rear or
Rear/Ceiling (see page 58).

If you’re mounting the projector on the ceiling and you place it above
screen level, you’ll have to tilt the projector down to position the
image on the screen. This causes the image to lose its square shape.
You can correct the distortion using the Keystone function in the
projector’s menu system (see page 51).
If you place the projector so that the base of the lens is level with the
bottom of the screen, the image should be square and you won’t have
to adjust it. If you place the lens lower than the bottom of the screen,
you’ll have to tilt the projector upward if you want to fill the whole
screen with the image.

Notices
This appendix includes safety instructions and other important information
about your Epson PowerLite projector.
Important Safety Instructions
Follow these safety instructions when setting up and using the projector:
■
■
■
Do not place the projector on an unstable cart, stand, or table.
Do not use the projector near water or sources of heat.
Use the type of power source indicated on the projector. If you are not
sure of the power available, consult your dealer or power company.
■
Place the projector near a wall outlet where the plug can be easily
unplugged.
Placez l’appareil près d’une prise de courant où la fiche peut être débranchée
facilement.
■
■
Insert the projector’s three-wire grounding-type plug into a properly
grounded outlet. If you have a two-prong outlet, contact an electrician
to replace it. Do not hold the plug with wet hands.
Take the following precautions for the plug. Failure to comply with
these precautions could result in sparks or fire: Do not insert the plug
into an outlet with dust present. Insert the plug firmly into the outlet.
■
■
■
■
Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience
receptacles. This can cause fire or electric shock.
Do not place the projector where the cord can be walked on. This may
result in fraying or damage to the plug.
Unplug the projector from the wall outlet before cleaning. Use a damp
cloth for cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
Do not block the slots and openings in the projector case. They provide
ventilation and prevent the projector from overheating. Do not operate
the projector on a sofa, rug, or other soft surface, or in a closed-in
cabinet unless proper ventilation is provided.

■
■
Ambient light is too bright.
Certain types of fluorescent lighting are used.
A strong light source shines into the IR receiver.
Other equipment that emits infrared energy, such as a radiant room
heater, is in the room.
These conditions commonly cause problems for most infrared-controlled
equipment. Try the following:

Warranty
Epson America, Inc. Limited Warranty
Basic Two-Year Warranty and 90-Day Lamp Warranty
What Is Covered: Epson America, Inc. (“Epson”) warrants to the original
retail purchaser of the Epson product enclosed with this limited warranty
statement that the product, if purchased new and operated in the United
States or Canada, conforms to the manufacturer’s specifications and will be
free from defects in workmanship and materials for a period of two (2) years
from the date of original purchase (except that the warranty period is 90 days
for projector lamps). For warranty service, you must provide proof of the date
of original purchase.
What Epson Will Do To Correct Problems: If you elect carry-in warranty
service, please bring the product securely packaged in its original container or
an equivalent, along with proof of the date of original purchase, to your
Epson Dealer or Epson Customer Care Center. Epson will, at its option,
repair or replace on an exchange basis the defective unit, without charge for
parts or labor. When warranty service involves the exchange of the product or
of a part, the item replaced becomes Epson property. The exchanged product
or part may be new or previously refurbished to the Epson standard of
quality, and at Epson’s option, the replacement may be another model of like
kind and quality. Epson’s liability for replacement of the covered product will
not exceed the original retail selling price of the covered product. Exchange
or replacement products or parts assume the remaining warranty period of
the product covered by this limited warranty. However, each replacement
lamp carries the limited 90-day warranty stated above.
What This Warranty Does Not Cover: This warranty does not apply to
refurbished or reconditioned products. This warranty covers only normal
consumer use in the United States and Canada. 24-hour-per-day use causes
unusual strain and is not considered normal use. This warranty does not
cover consumables (e.g., fuses), other than lamps. This warranty is not
transferable. Epson is not responsible for warranty service should the Epson
label or logo or the rating label or serial number be removed or should the
product fail to be properly maintained or fail to function properly as a result
of misuse, abuse, improper installation, neglect, improper shipping, damage
caused by disasters such as fire, flood, and lightning, improper electrical
current, software problems, interaction with non-Epson products, or service
other than by an Epson Authorized Servicer. Postage, insurance, or shipping
costs incurred in presenting your Epson product for carry-in warranty service
are your responsibility. If a claimed defect cannot be identified or reproduced
in service, you will be held responsible for costs incurred.
