Amazing color and white light output
The PowerLite Pro Z8350WNL delivers 8500 lumens of color
light output and 8500 lumens of
white light output1for true-to-life,
vibrant, colorful images, even in
ambient light. For today’s color-
rich, multimedia content, users
want a projector that delivers both optimum white and color
imagery. That’s why the industry has developed a new metric
called Color Light Output.
Always look for Color Light Output when
choosing a projector
• Foroptimumimagequalityandperformance,theprojector
you choose should offer equal levels of color and white

Award-winning Faroudja DCDi®Cinema for
advanced video
The PowerLite Pro Z8350WNL features a Faroudja DCDi
Cinema chipset, a video enhancement technology that
produces exceptional image quality without introducing
artifacts. Faroudja DCDi (Directional Correlational Deinterlacing)
was developed to eliminate jagging, using a unique algorithm.
This technology, in combination with decoding, deinterlacing
and enhancement technologies, won an Emmy Award from the
National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences in 2001.
6-axis color adjustment
For special projection material such as high-quality
photographs or artwork,
users can adjust the hue,
saturation and brightness
for six colors: RGBCMY
(Red, Green, Blue, Cyan,
Magenta, Yellow).
Brilliant widescreen performance
Featuring WXGA resolution (16:10), the
PowerLite Pro Z8350WNL is ideal for use with the
latest-generation widescreen computers and for projecting
high-definition content. It gives you:
• 30%moreimageareathana4:3image

C2FineTM technology delivers blacker blacks
C2Fine technology offers smooth, uniform images with
exceptional contrast for better image quality. Based on this new
phase-compensation technology, light leakage is eliminated,
allowing for the reproduction of blacker blacks. C2Fine
technology is combined with an auto iris, which allows for a
contrast ratio up to 5000:1.

Multi-PC Projection
EPSON Multi-PC
Collaboration utility allows
you to display four individual
PC screens simultaneously
over the network (wired
or wireless), with another
12 users connected to the
same projector on Standby
mode. You can drag and
drop participants into or out of one of the four quadrants. This
feature is a great tool for meetings or classroom projects where
multiple users want to present and compare their screens. You
can also connect up to four remote projectors at the same time
and show the same multi-screen image — another great tool
for remote meeting setups.
360-degree projection
The PowerLite Pro Z8350WNL can be
rotated 360 degrees in any direction for
off-axis positioning flexibility. As a result,
it can be used for a wide range of
applications, such as projecting on the
ceiling or floor, or as part of a rear-projection system. EPSON
technology keeps the projector running without compromising
performance or causing overheating.
DICOM simulation mode
DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communication in Medicine)
is a standard for handling, storing, printing and transmitting
medical imaging information. The projector’s DICOM Simulation
Mode enables users to reproduce images with an advanced
grayscale level that simulates DICOM Part 14. This mode is
ideal for viewing grayscale medical images, such as X-rays, for
training and educational purposes2.

Edge blending
Edge blending makes it easy to use multi-screen projection
and achieve a seamless panoramic image, in which color and
brightness match up, even in areas that overlap.

Diverse connectivity
The PowerLite Pro Z8350WNL offers HDMI, BNC and LAN
connectivity for easy integration with virtually any system.
Easy Management®with EPSON Monitor
EasyMP®technology makes it easy to monitor and control all
networked EPSON projectors. You can use the utility while
performing help desk services and proactively manage your
projector assets. Remotely power down your projector(s) to
extend the lamp life and produce energy savings. The utility
also allows you to set up e-mail notifications, verify and change
internal settings, and more. The utility is packaged on a CD
with the projector and can be used with a PC to check the
status of a projector. It is also available online at epson.com
Uninterrupted operation
The PowerLite Pro Z8350WNL boasts a dual lamp system
(two 340 W lamps) that eliminates the risk of interruption. If one
lamp were to fail, operation would continue, using the other
lamp. And, replacements are made easy with tool-free and
unobstructed access to the rear
control panel.
Schedule function
Using the convenient Schedule function, you can easily control
the projector at non-networked venues. The embedded “clock”
inside the projector enables it to do scheduled tasks without
having the “network stand-by mode” on. This saves energy, as
the projector can be turned off when not in use.
Memory function
The Z8350WNL features a Memory function, which allows you
to store up to 10 settings in the projector’s internal memory.
This saves installers valuable time in setting up the projector for
various venues and events.
Protect your investment — long-life
electrostatic air filter
The PowerLite Pro Z8350WNL filter is designed to protect the
optical engine, lamp and electronics from small dust particles
that can enter any projector. It has a recommended 10,000-
hour filter cleaning schedule.6The EPSON electrostatic filter
captures particles as small as three microns, due in part to
its pleated, expanded design. With one air intake and one
exhaust path, the PowerLite Pro Z8350WNL offers an efficient
airflow system for optimum cooling of key components and
a reduction in dust-related problems. Additionally, it has the
capability to send an e-mail notification out through the EPSON
Monitor utility when an increase in temperature is detected, due
to clogging.
LowCostofOwnership

Easy maintenance
Offering convenient access to the lamps and filter, the
PowerLite Pro Z8350WNL makes maintenance easier than
ever, even if the projector is ceiling mounted. The lamp cover
is located on the rear side panel and there are no screws, so
the lid can be removed without any special tools. In addition
to easy lamp and filter replacements, the Z8350WNL includes
features that make it easy to monitor and control. With EasyMP
Monitor, users can access advanced status functions over the
LAN network.
Quiet, reliable liquid cooling system
Epson’s innovative system uses liquid to cool the LCD chips
directly. The liquid absorbs the heat and is then cooled by a
peltier device, which is then cooled by a fan, thereby keeping
the overall optical engine cool. This system design promotes
greater reliability and enables stable operation in temperatures
up to 122 °F (50 °C). In addition, it offers quiet, unobtrusive
operation and allows for off-axis installation orientations.

EPSON lens shift technology enables outstanding installation

can operate the lens shift functions using the remote control,
the projector control panel, or control commands.
Arc correction
Using arc correction, you can adjust each side of a projected
image in an arch or barrel-shaped way, making it easier than
ever to get a perfectly rectangular image.
Centered lens design
Featuring a centered lens design, the PowerLite Pro Z8350WNL
makes installation easy to plan. Positioning the ceiling mount,
screen and projector can be performed individually and
independent of one another.
Easy Installation Tools

Six powered lens options
For great flexibility, the PowerLite Pro Z8350WNL offers a
total of six lenses including short, wide, and rear, along with
mid- to long-throw lenses that allow users to choose the
motorized lens most suited for their environment. A quick
release lever allows for a fast, easy lens exchange.
(Lens not included)
Test patterns
The PowerLite Pro Z8350WNL also includes six test patterns
with precise setup features, including detecting distortion,
checking linearity, color reproduction and bleeding, and tone
production check.
