Displaying and Adjusting the Image
Positioning the Projector
If you’re setting up the projector yourself and it isn’t already installed 
in the theater or conference room you’re using, you’ll probably want 
to place it on a table in front of the screen, as shown.  
x art below
This lets you stand in the front of the room, face the audience, and 
remain close enough to the equipment to be able to control it. Try to 
leave as much space as possible between the projector and the screen to 
get a good-size image. 
Use the figure below to help you determine placement. Image size 
increases with distance, but can vary depending on how you position 
the zoom ring and whether you’ve adjusted the image with other 
settings.
Also keep these considerations in mind: 
Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface.
Make sure there is plenty of space for ventilation around and 
under the projector. Do not set the projector on top of loose 
papers that could block the vents under the projector. 
Make sure the projector is within 10 feet of a grounded electrical 
outlet or extension cord. 
note
You can mount the projector 
on the ceiling, or place it 
behind a translucent screen 
for rear projection. See 
Appendix B for details.
