Updating Projector Firmware Using a Computer and USB Cable

You can update the projector firmware using a computer and a USB cable.
Note: You need a USB Type A to USB Mini-B cable.
Your computer must be running one of the following operating systems when updating firmware:
  • Windows 8.1 (32- and 64-bit)
  • Windows 10 (32- and 64-bit)
  • macOS 10.13.x (64-bit)
  • macOS 10.14.x (64-bit)
  • macOS 10.15.x (64-bit)
  1. Download the projector firmware file from the Epson support website. Make sure it is the correct firmware file for your model.
  2. Turn on the projector.
  3. Connect the USB cable to the computer's USB port and to the projector's Service port.
  4. Press the Menu button, select Initial/All Settings > Firmware Update and press Enter.
  5. Select Yes to start the firmware update.
    Note: Do not disconnect the power cable or remove the USB cable while the firmware is updating.
    All of the status indicators on the projector start flashing, and the projector enters firmware update mode. The projector appears as a removable drive on the connected computer.
  6. Copy the downloaded firmware file onto the root (top) directory of the projector's removable drive.
    Note: Do not rename the firmware file.
  7. Safely remove the projector's removable drive from the computer, then disconnect the USB cable from the projector. The firmware update starts.
While the firmware is updating, the status indicators on the projector start flashing and the cooling fans run at high speed (this is normal). After the update is complete, the projector enters standby mode. If Direct Power On is enabled, the projector restarts automatically.

After the update is complete, check the Version setting in the Management > Information menu to confirm that the firmware was updated successfully.
