Auto Image

The projector automatically adjusts tracking, signal synchroniza- tion and vertical and horizontal position for most computers. If you want to adjust these features manually, you must turn off Auto Image first by clicking it. Remember, to generate the best quality image, set your computer to output 800 x 600 resolution.

Auto Resize

The Auto Resize setting is available only for computer-generated images. Auto Resize automatically resizes the image by scaling it up or down.

When Auto Resize is on, the projector makes the best fit of the image to the screen. If you turn Auto Resize off (by clicking it), the image may be either cropped or too small for the screen.

Known for its versatility and performance, the LP420 remains a popular choice among users seeking quality visuals and user-friendly features.

One of the standout characteristics of the LP420 is its brightness. With an impressive output of 2000 ANSI lumens, this projector is designed to deliver clear and vibrant images, even in ambient light conditions. This level of brightness makes the LP420 suitable for a variety of settings, including conference rooms, classrooms, and places where controlling lighting may not always be possible.

Additionally, it supports a range of resolutions up to UXGA (1600 x 1200), providing flexibility depending on the content being displayed.

A key feature of the LP420 is its DLP (Digital Light Processing) technology. This technology allows for more accurate color reproduction and greater image stability compared to older projection methods. DLP projectors are also known for their lower maintenance needs, as they typically do not require lamp replacements as frequently as other types, which is advantageous for organizations looking to minimize long-term operating costs.

Connectivity is another important aspect of the InFocus LP420. The projector is equipped with multiple input options, including VGA, composite video, and S-Video, allowing it to connect easily to a range of devices, such as laptops, DVD players, and document cameras. This versatility ensures that users can seamlessly integrate the projector into existing technology setups.

In terms of design, the LP420 is compact and lightweight, making it easy to transport for on-the-go presentations or temporary setups. The intuitive interface and remote control further enhance the user experience, allowing for quick adjustments and settings changes without hassle.

In summary, the InFocus LP420 stands out for its combination of brightness, resolution, and user-friendly features. With DLP technology and versatile connectivity options, it is a reliable choice for a wide range of professional applications. Its compact design and ease of use make it particularly appealing for educators and business professionals alike, ensuring impactful presentations wherever it is deployed.
