The diagram shows approximately how big your image will be (diagonally), based on where you set up the projector.

Make sure the projector is within 10 feet (3 meters) of a
grounded electrical outlet or extension cord.
Face the projector squarely toward the screen.
The projector supports 4 viewing setups, as shown below. If it

Image Size and Projection Distance
The distance between the projector and the screen determines
the basic size of the projected image, as shown below. The
diagram shows approximately how big your image will be
(diagonally), based on where you set up the projector. Because
other adjustments—such as those made with the zoom ring—
also affect the size of the image, the numbers shown in the
illustration should be considered as general guidelines, not
exact measurements.
For more help determining the size of your image or where to
position the projector, try the Image Size Calculator on the
Multimedia Projectors page for your projector on Epson’s
website.
