“Toshiba has added the TLP-XE30U to its award-winning lineup of projectors to make presentation solutions more affordable for business professionals, educators and home digital entertainment enthusiasts,” stated Jane Poon, Toshiba America Information Systems Digital Products Division. “Toshiba constantly strives to provide our customers with the highest quality projector technology at the lowest possible price, the TLP-XE30U 3LCD projector is backed by a three-year standard limited warranty.”
The “blackboard” function allows color adjustments for projection on non-screen surfaces, such as a painted walls or blackboards. Users select a wall color, such as green, black, brown, blue or beige, and the projector automatically corrects the color for a clearer display in almost any environment.
