<h2>Follow our 3-step guide to replace the lamp in your Epson EMP-S6+ projector? It&#8217;s simple to do.</h2>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2>Step 1: Knowing when to replace</h2>
<p><a href="http://www.fixyourdlp.com/uploads/Epson-ELPLP41-EX30-EX50-EX70.jpg"><img class="wp-image-9248 alignleft" style="margin: 15px 20px;" alt="Epson-EB-S6-EB-X6-projector-warning-light-Epson-ELPLP41-lamp" src="http://www.fixyourdlp.com/uploads/Epson-ELPLP41-EX30-EX50-EX70-300x243.jpg" width="198" height="127" /></a>Watch for the signs that the <a href="http://www.discount-merchant.com/p-1004-epson-elplp41-lamp-replacement-v13h010l41.aspx" target="_blank">Epson ELPLP41</a> needs to be replaced in the <strong>Epson EMP-S6+ projector</strong>:</p>
<ul>
<li>Dark image</li>
<li>Image that has deteriorated</li>
<li>On warning message appears on screen</li>
<li>Lamp light flashes orange</li>
<li>Lamp light turns red and stays on</li>
<li>Check Lamp Usage</li>
</ul>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3><a href="http://www.fixyourdlp.com/uploads/Epson-ELPLP41-EX30-EX50-EX70-Check-Lamp-Hours.jpg"><img class="wp-image-9249 alignleft" style="margin-left: 20px; margin-right: 20px;" alt="Epson-EB-S6-EB-X6-projector-check-lamp-life-Epson-ELPLP41-lamp" src="http://www.fixyourdlp.com/uploads/Epson-ELPLP41-EX30-EX50-EX70-Check-Lamp-Hours-300x197.jpg" width="300" height="197" srcset="http://www.fixyourdlp.com/uploads/Epson-ELPLP41-EX30-EX50-EX70-Check-Lamp-Hours-300x197.jpg 300w, http://www.fixyourdlp.com/uploads/Epson-ELPLP41-EX30-EX50-EX70-Check-Lamp-Hours.jpg 491w" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /></a>Check the number of hours:</h3>
<p>You can expect up to 3000 hours from your lamp if the Brightness Controls have been set to High. If Brightness Controls has been set to Low, you can expect, 4,000 hours.</p>
<ul>
<li>Press the MENU button</li>
<li>Scroll down to highlight the INFO Menu. The number of hours let will be shown on screen.</li>
</ul>
<h2></h2>
<h2></h2>
<h2></h2>
<h2>Step 2: Finding the correct lamp</h2>
<p>Why buy authentic? You&#8217;ll want to protect your investment and buy the best possible lamp for your <strong>Epson EMP-S6+ projector</strong>. Why jeopardize the projector to save a few dollars. Copycats lamps advertised as &#8220;generic compatible&#8221; lamps may appear to be a bargain but they actually will end up costing more in the long run. Why? Because generic lamps actually have <a href="http://www.fixyourdlp.com/2011/11/11/go-with-original-replacement-projection-lamps/" target="_blank">shorter lamp life than original lamps</a> and are <a href="http://www.fixyourdlp.com/2011/11/21/protect-yourself-against-counterfeits/" target="_blank">prone to explosions</a>. Since copy cat manufacturers lack the genuine materials, they resort to using <a href="http://www.fixyourdlp.com/2012/05/25/consumer-alert-dangers-counterfeit_projector_lamps/" target="_blank">toxic materials and carcinogenic parts including Krypton-85</a>.</p>
<p>Be sure to purchase an authentic <a href="http://www.discount-merchant.com/p-1004-epson-elplp41-lamp-replacement-v13h010l41.aspx" target="_blank">Epson ELPLP41</a> projector lamp for your <strong>Epson EMP-S6+ projector</strong> and avoid <a href="http://www.fixyourdlp.com/2011/12/02/7-tips-for-spotting-counterfeits/" target="_blank">incompatible parts that can damage the sensitive components in your projector</a>. Save yourself unnecessary headaches You’ll be getting a far superior product with a replacement guarantee and tech support.</p>
<h2>Step 3: How to install the Epson ELPLP41</h2>
<p><strong>Before installation</strong>:</p>
<ul>
<li>Turn power button off wait for light to stop flashing.</li>
<li>Turn off power swtich on the back of the <strong>Epson </strong><strong>EMP-S6+ </strong>projector.</li>
<li>Unplug the power cord.</li>
<li>Allow the <strong>Epson </strong><strong>EMP-S6+ </strong>projector to cool for one hour – it should be cool to the touch. Inside of the projector can be very hot since these machines operator under high temperatures and you run the risk of being burned if the projector has not cooled down.</li>
<li><em>Do not operate the projectors while any of the lamps are removed as this may result in malfunctions, fire hazard and other accidents</em>.</li>
</ul>
<p><em>Caution: Don’t touch the screen or the actual bulb with your finger since the oil from your skin can cause a black spot on the bulb.</em></p>
