Projecting a Square Image

For best image quality, place the projector at a height where its lens is between the top and bottom of the screen. This lets you keep the projector level and use the vertical lens shift knob to position the image.

Positioning the Projector

You can install the projector for these viewing setups:

If you place the projector above or below screen level, you’ll have to tilt it up or down to aim the image at the screen; this distorts (or “keystones”) the shape of the image, but you can correct it using the projector’s Keystone function (see page 5).
