Adjusting the Projected Image

If your projector isn’t installed in a fixed location, you can correct many image
problems by shifting your projector or adjusting its zoom lens. Optimally, you should
have a margin of approximately 3/8" (1 cm) on both the right and left sides of the
screen. You can then adjust the zoom lens to display a focused image.

NOTES

Don’t adjust the image size and geometry based on your projector’s splash
screen. The splash screen image is much smaller than the computer’s
projected image. Before you adjust the projected image, make sure that you
set the computer’s resolution and refresh rate. See Configuring Your
Computer Settings
on page 25.

Complete the following steps only as required.

To adjust the

projected image

1. If the left and right edges of the projected image aren’t parallel, raise or lower your

projector at the front or back until the edges are parallel.

2. If the top and bottom edges aren’t parallel, turn the projector slowly until the edges

are parallel.

3. Further adjust your projector using small, slow movements until you’re satisfied

with the projected image.

Correct the image’s horizontal and vertical position by adjusting the height
and position of the projector platform or stand.

Adjust the image laterally by sliding the projector to the left or right.

Adjust the image size by moving the projector forward or backward
to increase or reduce the image size, until it correctly fills the screen.

4. Make fine adjustments to the image level and size according to your projector

manufacturer’s instructions.

5. Create a clear image by adjusting your projector’s focus function.
