Adjusting Projector Image

Aligning Projected Image To A Projection Screen

To ensure that the projected image shows within the surface of a projection screen, use the following method:

1 Move the projector close to the screen, and form a rectangular image that is smaller than the screen itself.

Adjusting Projector Position

When you select a position for the projector, consider the size and shape of your screen, the location of your power outlets, and the distance between the projector and the rest of your equipment. Follow these general guidelines:

  • When positioning the projector to the screen, it must be at least 3.9 inches (9.9 cm) and not more than 8.9 inches (22.6 cm) from the projection screen.
  • The size of the projected image is dependent on the distance between the projector and the screen. Move the projector further away from the screen to obtain a larger projected image.
  • Position the projector to the required distance from the screen. The distance from the lens of the projector to the screen, the zoom setting, and the video format determine the size of the projected image.
  • Lens throw ratio: 0.189
