Download procedure

Preparing the computer

Download the firmware update file, epson12312.exe to the PC. This file is a self-extracting
archive and will decompress to C:\EPSON\epson12312_easymp_110. Copy the firmware
update files to the root directory of a USB Thumbdrive (flash memory).
Note: Make sure that the root directory of the flash memory only has the 2 firmware update
files on it; no other files or folders should exist on the USB memory device.

Preparing projector

Note: Do not unplug the power cord or remove the USB device before the upgrade is
complete. If the firmware update procedure is interrupted for any reason, before the
procedure is complete, it may render the projector unusable. If this occurs you will need
to contact Epson or take your projector to an authorized Epson Customer Care Center.
1. Power on the projector.
2. Make sure that the projector is set to "Network Off" by clicking, Menu ->Extended ->
Standby Mode. If the Standby Mode is set to "Network ON", set it to "Network Off", and
turn the projector off and on.
NOTE: If you attempt to run the firmware upgrade with the projector set to "Network
On", then the projector will be stuck in a loop and will continue to run the update.
In this case, remove the USB flash memory at the moment that the green light of
USB access indicator goes off.
3. Display the EasyMP main screen by pushing EasyMP button on the remote control.
4. Connect the USB flash memory to USB port Type A on the projector. A Black screen is
displayed. The projector enters download mode while making the 3 LED indicators
(Power, Lamp and Temp indicators) show solid orange. After a while, the USB access
indicator lights green and the update will start. When the update is complete, the green
light of USB access indicator goes off. NOTES: USB access indicator lights green a few
seconds after Power, Lamp and Temp LED's show solid orange. Don't remove the USB
flash memory during the updating (USB access indicator is lit.)
