If the image still isn’t large enough, you may need to move the projector farther away from the screen. You can also use the E-Zoombutton on the remote control to zoom in on a portion of the image. See page 50 for instructions.

Resizing the Image

If only part of your computer screen is displayed, your computer may be set for a higher resolution than the projector’s “native” display: 1024 × 768 pixels (PowerLite 8100i) or 1280 × 1024 (PowerLite 9100i). You can resize the image to fit the resolution of your projector.

Press the Resize button on the remote control or the control panel. The screen image is automatically compressed.

Continue pressing the Resize button to pan around the screen in the original resolution.

If you’re projecting from video equipment, pressing the Resize button switches the aspect ratio between 4:3 and 16:9. If you have zoomed in on your image, you can also use the Resize button to switch it back to the original display size.

note

You can also resize your image with the Resize button when you’re projecting from a VCR or other video source.
