Cleaning the Projector, Cleaning the Lens, Cleaning the Air Filter

Clean the projector if it becomes soiled or if the quality of the projected images deteriorate. Please clean the air filter about every 100 hours of operation.

Warning

·Personnel other than qualified servicemen must never open the projector. Many high-volt- age parts are contained inside the cover that may cause electric shocks. Contact your dealer or your nearest adress provided at page 104 to request internal inspections, repairs, adjust- ments, cleaning and other tasks.

·Exercise caution when handling the Power Plug and Power Connector. Mishandling may result in the outbreak of fire and electric shocks. Observe the following when handling the Power Plug.

·Do not connect plugs or connectors that have become dirty or have foreign matter adher- ing to them.

·Ensure that the plugs and connectors are firmly inserted in the relevant sockets as far as they will go.

·Never attempt to connect plugs and connectors with wet hands.

Caution

·Never attempt to remove the lamp immediately after use.

Failure to observe this may result in burns or other injuries. Allow the projector to cool down for at least sixty minutes after the power supply has been switched off.

·Disconnect the Power Plug and Power Connector from their sockets when carrying out maintenance tasks. Failure to observe this may result in electric shocks.

Switch off the power supply and disconnect the Power Cord prior to cleaning any part of the projector.

Cleaning the projector

·Gently wipe the soiled parts of the projector with a soft cloth.

·When the soiling is severe, wipe the area with a cloth moistened with a medium-strenth cleaning agent diluted with water, and then gently wipe it with a dry cloth.

Never use wax, Benzene, thinner or other active agents. Failure to observe this may result in damage or paint peeling from the casing.

Cleaning the lens

Clean the lens with an air-blower (available on the open market) and special lens cleaning paper. The surface of the lense is easily damaged, so exercise extreme caution and avoid using anything other than soft materials.

9100 specifications

The Epson 9100 is a formidable player in the realm of high-quality projectors, designed for both home theater enthusiasts and professional users. As one of Epson's flagship models, it stands out due to its impressive blend of advanced technologies, exceptional image quality, and a range of features tailored to enhance the viewing experience.

One of the standout features of the Epson 9100 is its use of 3LCD technology. This innovative system utilizes three individual LCD panels—one each for the primary colors: red, green, and blue. This design not only delivers vivid colors but also ensures a high level of brightness, making it ideal for various lighting conditions. Unlike certain DLP projectors, the 3LCD technology minimizes the risk of color wheel artifacts, resulting in rich and immersive visuals that captivate audiences.

The Epson 9100 supports 4K enhancement, providing stunningly sharp images that are crucial for modern content. This feature utilizes advanced pixel-shifting technology to produce 4K-like resolution, dramatically improving the clarity and detail of images, whether watching a movie, playing video games, or viewing presentations. The expanded resolution allows for a more extensive detail capture, enhancing overall immersion.

Moreover, the Epson 9100 boasts a remarkable color gamut, capable of producing a wide range of colors, thanks in part to its high dynamic contrast ratio. With an impressive brightness output, this projector can deliver vibrant images even in brightly lit rooms, ensuring versatility across different settings. The projector supports HDR (High Dynamic Range), enhancing the dynamic range of color and brightness, which brings out subtle details in bright and dark scenes alike.

Connectivity is another strongpoint of the Epson 9100, featuring an array of ports that accommodate various devices. From HDMI inputs for high-definition devices to USB ports for easy streaming and presentations, the projector is designed for convenience. Access to wireless connectivity options allows users to project content from smartphones or tablets without the need for cables.

The Epson 9100 also prioritizes user comfort with its quiet operation, ensuring that movie nights or presentations remain undisturbed by distracting fan noises. Additionally, its sophisticated lens shifting capabilities allow for flexible installation options, enabling users to position the projector in various settings without compromising image quality.

In conclusion, the Epson 9100 is a versatile and high-performance projector that merges advanced technologies with exceptional features. From 3LCD technology and 4K enhancement to extensive connectivity options and quiet operation, it caters to the needs of both casual viewers and serious professionals looking for superior home entertainment or presentation solutions. Its combination of vivid imagery and user-friendly design makes it a standout choice in the projector market.
