Native WXGA (1280 x 800) resolution — for power and convenience
With WXGA resolution, this projector is ideal for use with widescreen computers or to display high definition content. Its 16:10 aspect ratio allows you to fully utilize the capabilities of your widescreen notebook, giving you 30 percent more usable area than a regular 4:3 image and 10 percent more than a 16:9 image. The PowerLite 1730W still offers the flexibility of displaying 4:3 and 16:9 images, as needed.

3LCD technology — for quality and color that’s beyond amazing
3LCD technology delivers amazing color and detail. Whether it’s big-screen entertainment or a classroom demonstration, 3LCD technology takes video performance to the next level. Delivering legendary image quality, this innovative technology always ensures powerful visual presentations.

• Color — 3LCD technology goes far beyond ordinary color. “Clear”, “rich” and “vibrant” barely begin to describe the incredible depth and brilliance it delivers. The impact is stunning. It’s an astonishing level of realism you never thought possible.
• Reliability — 3LCD technology is durable and dependable. Road-tested by millions of projector users around the world, it has been used in more projection products than any other. Over 50 million chips used in projectors and RPTV products have been put to the test in classrooms, sales presentations and on stage.
• Detail — 3LCD technology offers extraordinary detail. And detail is what superior image quality is all about — from movies to your most important presentations. 3LCD light engines deliver incredible, jaw-dropping detail — the kind that puts you right in the middle of where the action is.

Energy-efficient E-TORL lamp
The innovative E-TORL lamp, exclusively from Epson, is a reliable performer that delivers more lumens per watt and lasts up to 4000 hours¹. Switch the projector to High Mode and the E-TORL lamp still produces up to 3000 hours of light performance. The special E-TORL design minimizes both light defraction and light leakage, providing you the ultimate in lamp longevity — up to 50 percent more lamp life than competitive products. And, E-TORL replacement lamps cost up to $150 less than competing replacement lamps. So, while the E-TORL lamp maximizes your presentation time, it also minimizes your costs.

Color and white light output
With Epson projectors, your presentations are sure to shine bright. The Epson PowerLite 1730W delivers 3000 lumens, whether you’re projecting images with deep, dark colors or a white screen with minimal text or graphics. You get consistent light output, whatever you’re projecting. And, with Epson, you can be confident you’re getting exactly what you need because Epson measures white light output according to the ISO 21118 standard, a more rigid standard than the maximum or outdated ANSI lumens rating used by competitive products.
