An array of advanced functionality for environmentally friendly operation, with improved ease-of-use and installation.

Enhanced design and settings for greater ease-of-use

Newly designed from the user’s perspective
The sliding lens cover temporarily stops video and audio when it is closed. In addition, the design has been completely updated to improve settings and operation. For example, the names of connectors are displayed on the top of the unit to make it easier to find their position on the back and the operation buttons have been made larger so they are easier to press. The power light is an easy-to-see blue LED so you can determine the power status in a glance.

1.7x zoom
The projector has a 1.7x zoom to cover a wide projection distance, so you can setup in various locations.

Interfaces for various functions The projector is equipped with an HDMI connector for projecting digital images in high quality, as well as a wired/wireless (option) LAN port. Model name of the optional wireless LAN unit* varies depending on the country where the unit is used (or to be used). You can connect the projector to a computer using a standard USB cable and project the computer screen from the projector without needing computer cables. The remote control of the projector can perform computer mouse operations so you don’t have to switch between mouse and remote for different operations. The projector also has a viewer function that lets you project data (JPEG) stored on USB memory, so you can give presentations without a computer.

“No signal guidance” for easy cable connections When the power of a device connected to the projector is switched on, the input signal is automatically detected and projected. What’s more, when there is no signal being input, the “no signal guidance” lets you know in a glance where the cable should be inserted, so your setup runs smoothly.

Enhanced functions for reduced power consumption and TCO

A complete lineup of eco functions
The projector has an Auto Eco Mode, which automatically adjusts the brightness to suit the projected image, and Eco2 Mode*, which is convenient when it’ s too bright during small screen projection. There are Eco buttons on the projector and remote control so you can more easily enable Eco Mode.

Greatly improved lamp lifetime The time between lamp exchanges has been improved significantly. For normal use and Eco Mode, the times are 5,000 and 6,000 hours, respectively.* The low power design cuts energy consumption in standby (called “Power-saving Mode” in reference Excel sheet) to 0.2 W (100-130 V AC)/0.4 W (200-240 V AC), which helps with TCO reduction. *For the M300X, M260X, M230X and M260W. For the M350X and M300W, the times for normal and Eco Mode are 4,000 and 5,000 hours, respectively.

Large filter enhances protection against dust
The large double-layer filter improves protection against dust. If you exchange the filter when you exchange the lamp, there is no need for regular cleaning.
