Position
 
Proper placement of the projector relative to the screen will yield a rectangular, 
perfectly-centered image that completely fills the screen.
Ideally, the projector should be positioned perpendicular to the screen and in such a way 
that the lens center is aligned with either the top or bottom edge of the screen area, and 
centered horizontally. See Figure 3-3.
Figure 3-3. Projector Placement
Lens Shift
You can use the lens shift controls on the projector to center the image on the screen. 
Lens shift is generally expressed as a percentage of the screen height or width, as shown 
in Figure 3-4 and Figure 3-5.
