Connecting to a Computer for USB Video and Audio

If your computer meets the system requirements, you can send video and audio output to the projector through the computer's USB port (a USB 2.0 cable is recommended). Connect the projector to your computer using a USB cable.
Note: If you use a USB hub, the connection may not operate properly. Connect the USB cable directly to the projector.
Note: This also lets you use the interactive pens with your computer. You need to change the USB Type B setting in the projector's Extended menu before you can project through the USB port. Note that using USB Display will slow interactive pen function. For the best performance, VGA or HDMI connections are recommended.
Note: A USB connection may cause a delay for content requiring high bandwidth, such as movies. An HDMI connection is recommended for projecting movies, video games, and other home entertainment content.
  1. Turn on your computer.
  2. Connect a USB cable to your projector's USB-B1 port.


  3. Connect the other end to any available USB port on your computer.
  4. To use USB Display, do one of the following:
    • Windows 10/Windows 8.x: Click EPSON_PJ_UD in the upper right-corner, then select Run EMP_UDSE.exe in the dialog box that appears to install the Epson USB Display software.
    • Windows 7/Windows Vista: Select Run EMP_UDSE.exe in the dialog box that appears to install the Epson USB Display software.
    • Mac: The USB Display setup folder appears on your screen. Select USB Display Installer and follow the on-screen instructions to install the Epson USB Display software.
    Follow any on-screen instructions. You need to install this software only the first time you connect the projector to the computer.
The projector displays the image from your computer's desktop and outputs sound, if your presentation contains audio.
