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 PowerLite®410W is a portable, short-throw projector that
weighs less than 8 pounds (3.6 kg) and offers 2000 lumens of white
and color light output (brightness). From classrooms to boardrooms,
your full-color presentations and videos will be bright and vibrant
even in ordinary indoor lighting. Images are displayed at a native
resolution of 1280 × 800 pixels (WXGA) in a wide-screen 16:10
aspect ratio. Epson 3LCD technology ensures accurate color and
remarkable saturation, even in well-lit rooms.
The projector’s ground-breaking short-throw lens is ideal for wall
mounting, allowing more space for your class or audience, with no
shadow cast by the presenter or light in the presenter’s eyes. It can be
placed as close as 24 inches (62 cm) from a screen, interactive
whiteboard (IWB), or other projection surface and project a 60-inch
(152 cm), 16:10 image. And its powerful 10 W speaker, crisp 500:1
contrast ratio, and built-in closed captioning decoder ensure your
presentations are seen and heard at their best.
You can connect the projector to a wide range of computers, including
IBM®-compatible PCs and laptops, Apple®PowerPC®and Intel®
Core™Macintosh®computers, PowerBook®computers, and many
iMac®and iBook®series systems. With Epson’s patented SizeWise™
technology, the projector supports computer displays, including
widescreen displays, ranging from VGA through WSXGA+. You can
also connect the projector to a LAN (local area network) so you can
monitor the projector from a remote network computer using the
included EMP Monitor software (Windows®only).
You can use any of the following video sources: HDTV, VCR, DVD
player, gaming console (such as Microsoft®Xbox,
™Sony®
PlayStation®3, and Nintendo Wii™), camcorder, or digital camera.
The projector supports NTSC, PAL, and SECAM video formats.

8Welcome
You can connect up to four devices to the projector at the same time.
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 a full or
partial Control Panel Lock feature. For more information about
security features, see page 66.
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 20. For additional presentation control, you
can 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, digital
camera, and other video sources to your projector. See page 26 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.
■Enhancing sound in your presentation
By connecting your projector to external speakers, you can
enhance the audio impact of your presentations. (The internal
10 W speaker provides powerful sound, but is disabled when you
connect external speakers.) See page 25 for details.

Setting Up the Projector
This chapter tells you how to set up the projector and connect it to a
computer or video source. You can connect up to four devices
simultaneously: four video sources, or two computer and two video
sources.
You’ll find instructions for the following in this chapter:
■Positioning the projector
■Connecting to a computer
■Connecting to video sources

16 Setting Up the Projector
Positioning the Projector
Before connecting the projector, you need to decide where to place it.
If the projector isn’t already installed in the room you’re using, you
can place it on a table in front of the screen. This lets you stand in the
front of the room, face the audience, and control the projector.
Ideally, you should place the projector between 26 to 48 inches (66 to
122 cm) from the screen. Use the illustrations and tables below to
help you determine approximately how far to place it based on the
screen size you’re using and the aspect ratio of the image. Image size
can vary depending on how you adjust the zoom and other settings.

18 Setting Up the Projector
Also keep these considerations in mind:
■If you’re projecting from a table or other flat surface, make sure
the surface is sturdy and level.
■Make sure there is plenty of space for ventilation around and
under the projector. Do not set the projector next to loose papers
that could block the vents on the sides of the projector.
■Make sure the projector is within 14.8 feet (4.5 m) of a grounded
electrical outlet or extension cord.
■Place the projector in front of the center of the screen, facing it
squarely. If the projector isn’t positioned this way, the image will
be “keystone” shaped ( or ) instead of rectangular.
If you’re projecting from a table or other flat surface, you may need to
tilt the projector up by extending the front adjustable foot, as
described on page 41. This causes the image to lose its rectangular
shape. You can adjust the shape using the buttons on the projector
