EPSON PowerLite 8000i/9000i Projector
To determine the projection distance when you know the diagonal size of the screen image:
❏Inches:
Maximum projection distance = (1.967 × diagonal size) – 3.224 Minimum projection distance = (1.554 × diagonal size) – 3.563
❏Centimeters:
Maximum projection distance = (4.996 × diagonal size) – 8.1889 Minimum projection distance = (3.947 × diagonal size) – 9.0500
For example, here are the measurements for three installations:
Image size | Horizontal distance | |
(diagonal) | from projector to screen | |
|
|
|
| Minimum | Maximum |
|
|
|
300 in.* (762 cm) | 460.6 in. (11.7 m) | 586.6 in. (14.9 m) |
200 in. (508 cm) | 307.1 in. (7.8 m) | 389.8 in. (9.9 m) |
100 in. (254 cm) | 153.5 in. (3.9 m) | 192.9 in. (4.9 m) |

*For an image size of 320 inches, the projector may be up to 52.1 feet away from the screen, depending on the setting of the zoom ring.
