Optoma ZU506T-W

Overview

The Optoma ZU506T-W is a laser DLP projector designed to deliver bright and sharp images with its native WUXGA resolution of 1920 by 1200 pixels and a brightness level of 5000 lumens. This combination ensures visuals remain clear and vibrant even in well-lit rooms, making it suitable for conference rooms, classrooms, and professional environments where image quality and visibility are essential. Its dynamic contrast ratio of 300,000 to 1 enhances darker scenes with deep blacks and fine details, improving the overall viewing experience.

The projector offers a flexible throw ratio from 1.4 to 2.24 to 1, allowing it to fit various room sizes without compromising image size or quality. Vertical lens shift and four-corner adjustment features make it easier to align the image perfectly on the screen, even if the projector cannot be placed directly in front of the display surface. This flexibility supports a wide range of installation scenarios.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
