The top of your monitor screen should be at or slightly below eye level. Most HP monitors come with a tilt-and-swivel feature that makes it easy to adjust the screen position. If your monitor doesn’t have this feature, consider acquiring an accessory that provides this capability.

To avoid obscuring your view, the screen should be positioned perpendicular to your line of sight; that is, straight on.

To avoid glare or reflection, try to position the monitor so the screen is at a right angle to your window rather than in front of it. If reflection or glare persists, tilting the screen forward may help. If this adjustment is not sufficient, it may be necessary to change either the position of the monitor on your work surface, or the location of your work surface. If reflection or glare is still a problem, find out where it is coming from. Common sources of glare are overhead lights,

windows, or reflections from shiny surfaces including pictures or even bright clothing. See if there is a way to control the source of the problem (see “Lighting” on page 10). If that doesn’t work, try a high-quality anti-glare filter or a screen hood.

Maintain a comfortable viewing distance to the screen. Most people prefer a viewing distance of approximately 46 to 76 cm (18 to 30 inches), depending on monitor size. Character size and the amount of space available on the work surface can affect this distance.
