Compatible Computer Display Formats
You can connect the projector to a wide range of computers, including
PCs and notebooks, Apple Macintosh, Power Macintosh series
(including G3, G4 and G5 systems), PowerBook computers, many
iMac and iBook series systems, and high-end workstations such as the
Sun
®
SPARCstation.

Although images are displayed at the projector’s native resolution of
1024 × 768 pixels (PowerLite 82c) or 800 × 600 pixels (PowerLite
62c), Epson’s patented SizeWise chip supports computer display
formats ranging from VGA through UXGA.
To project images output from a computer, the computer’s external
monitor signal must be set at a refresh rate (vertical frequency) that’s
compatible with the projector; see the following table for compatible
formats. For best results, the computer’s resolution should be set to
match the projector’s native resolution (1024 × 768, or 800 × 600). If
this resolution isn’t available, select one of the other compatible
formats:
■ Windows:
Right-click the desktop, select
Properties, click the Settings tab,
and select a compatible resolution. (For a notebook displaying
through an external monitor port, you’ll need to click the
Advanced button on the Settings tab, then adjust the resolution
of the external monitor.)
■ Macintosh OS X:
From the Apple menu, select
System Preferences, then click
Displays. Make sure the VGA Display or Color LCD dialog box
is selected, then click the
Display tab and select a compatible
resolution.
■ Macintosh OS 9.x:
On the Apple menu, choose
Control Panels, then click
Monitors or Monitors and Sound. Click the Monitor tab and
select a compatible resolution for your external monitor.
You may need to modify existing presentation files if you created them
for a different resolution. See your software documentation for details.
