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 1

Welcome

The EPSON® PowerLite®7700p is a portable projector offering

3000 ANSI lumens of brightness. From boardrooms to auditoriums,

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

in ordinary room lighting.

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

1.3-inch LCD provides a 400:1 contrast ratio for incredibly vivid

images and clear text. Improved video processing reduces “color noise”

for rich, saturated images. Reduced light leakage and whisper-quiet

operation contribute to theater-quality video.

With EPSON’s patented SizeWise™chip, the projector supports

computer displays ranging from VGA through UXGA, as well as the

Digital Visual Interface (DVI) format.

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

IBM® compatible PCs and laptops, Apple®Macintosh,

Power

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

computers, many iMac™and iBook™series systems, and high-end

workstations such as the Sun®SPARCstation.

™

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

camcorder, digital camera, or laser disc player, supporting HDTV,

NTSC, PAL, or SECAM video. The projector automatically senses

the video format, which can be composite video, S-Video, or

component video.

2Welcome

Getting the Most from Your Projector

Your EPSON PowerLite 7700p is a highly versatile presentation tool.

You can connect it to one or two computer sources and up to three

video sources and easily switch between them. You can also include

sound for up to three of the sources.

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 to a PC laptop or Macintosh PowerBook,

see page 12. To connect to a desktop computer, a workstation, a

computer that outputs video in Digital Visual Interface (DVI)

format, or more than one computer, see Appendix A.

■Connecting to video sources

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

player, digital camera, or any other video source to your projector.

You can connect several types of video sources at the same time

(with or without a computer) and easily switch between them.

See page 15 for instructions.

■Using the remote control

The remote control lets you switch from one computer or video

source to another, with access to picture-in-picture, pointer,

zoom, and many other projector features. For details, see “Using

the Remote Control” on page 29.

By connecting an additional cable, you can also use the remote

control as a wireless mouse. This lets you click through

slideshow-style presentations (such as PowerPoint®) from up to

30 feet away. For more information, see page 38.

■Including sound in your presentation

If your presentation includes sound, you can connect an audio

cable to use the projector’s built-in stereo speakers. For details, see

page 14 (for laptops) or Appendix A (for other systems).

If you’re permanently installing the projector, you may wish to

connect external speakers or a public address system to the

projector’s Audio Out port; see page 79.

note

You can connect a maximum

of four sources at the same

time.

■Controlling Your Projector from a Computer

If you want to be able to control the projector’s settings from

your computer (for example, if the projector is ceiling-mounted),

you can install the EMP Link V program on the Projector

Software CD-ROM. In addition to making the projector’s

features accessible from your computer, this program lets you

customize the highlighting tools (special effects buttons on the

remote control). For details, see page 78.

Using Your Documentation

To connect the projector to your laptop and get your presentation

running fast, see the Quick Setup sheet that came in your Owner’s Kit.

This book contains all the information you need to set up and use

your projector. Please follow these guidelines as you read through it:

■Warnings must be followed carefully to avoid bodily injury.

■Cautions must be observed to avoid damage to your equipment.

■Notes contain important information about your projector.
