Epson's 3LCD technology that is used by these projectors
Shared Features of the Epson EB-S9/X9 and EB-X10/W10
- 3LCD Technology – The proprietary Epson 3LCD technology used by the new projectors enable distinctly sharper and clearer projections and similar to other Epson projectors, these new models use the Epson proprietary 3-chip, solid-state 3LCD optical engine; in which each LCD chip is dedicated to processing one of the primary colours: red, green and blue.
- E-TORL – The new projectors have Epson-Twin Optimized Reflection Lamp (E-TORL) that is 20% more efficient than conventional projector lamps and offers a lamp lifespan of 5000 hours (on Eco mode).

- Front Facing Exhaust – The exhaust vents of these new projectors are located at the front of the projector.
- Quick Startup and Instant Off – The projectors can start up within 5 seconds and can be turned off instantly. These capabilities allow users to save on both the waiting time for starting presentations as well as the usual cool down time required by other projectors.
