User-friendly Features
Horizontal Keystone Adjuster
Deliver powerful presentations anywhere in the room. With the easy-to-use sliding Horizontal Keystone Adjuster, screen corrections can be done quickly, easily and accurately, even in a limited space.

With automatic vertical keystone detection and adjustment, there is no longer any need for awkward and time-consuming manual image adjustments that interrupt the smooth flow of your presentation delivery. This handy feature automatically detects the projector’s vertical keystone distortion and corrects it instantly.

Home Screen
View and access your most frequently used functions immediately on the home screen. See all source information at a glance, no matter what the source input. With all the information you need right there on the home screen, wireless connections have never been easier.

Auto Power On
With the auto power on function, projection starts automatically once a projection signal is detected via VGA cable or USB cable, providing you with an easy and hassle-free presentation.

Auto Source Search
With automatic detection of the input source, projection automatically begins without you having to manually switch the input.

Redirected Exhaust
The front-facing exhaust is intelligently positioned to prevent anyone from being exposed to the hot exhaust, especially when on a narrow table. This allows your audience to fully concentrate on the presentation, even if they are seated beside or behind the projector.

Seamless Connectivity and Usability
Wide-ranging Connectivity
Advanced connectivity features mean convenient and hassle-free projections for your presentations. With a wide-ranging interface, you can choose from a variety of connection methods including HDMI, VGA and LAN. In addition, the EB-U42 is equipped with two HDMI ports, one of which is MHL-enabled, for greater digital compatibility.

Simply connect your MHL-compatible device with the MHL cable to fully enjoy your contents on the big screen. What’s more, when connected, you can charge your smart device and operate it using the projector’s remote control.

Wireless Transmission
Enjoy enhanced connectivity and flexibility with in-built Wi-Fi connectivity. Easily share and transmit images, texts and files from your smart devices using the “Epson iProjection” application for smooth and smart projections.

Split Screen
Display images from two different sources side by side on the same screen for a more effective presentation. In video conferences, for example, images of presentation materials and remote participants can be shown simultaneously.

Epson iProjection*
The iProjection application enables a wireless connection for projecting images and files from your smart devices. The “QR Code Reader” function makes this wireless connection even easier by simply reading the QR code that is projected on the screen from your smart devices.

* In iProjection, projector profile search, multi-screen display, distribution function, audio transfer, movie file transfer and encryption data transfer capabilities are not supported.

Multi-PC Projection Moderator Function
With the control of a host PC, up to 50 terminals can be connected via the multi-PC projection to a single projector. The host PC acts as a moderator, selecting media from up to four PCS or smart devices to be projected simultaneously. With the moderator function, you can maintain control and prevent tampering of what’s projected on screen.

Convenient Wireless Mirroring Projection
Project contents wirelessly from compatible smart devices and laptops without any software installation with the Miracast. The technology enables easy wireless transmission of Full HD video and sound from PCs and smart devices, eliminating the hassle of a physical connection and eradicating issues with setting up. With support for screen mirroring*, projecting your tablet and laptop screens has never been easier.

* If the Miracast function is activated, other network features will be disabled.
