Raising the projector causes the image to distort or "keystone," but you can manually correct the shape as described in the next section. Adjusting the Image Shape In most cases, you can maintain a square or rectangular image by placing the projector directly in front of the center of the screen and using the Lens Shift (instead of tilting the projector upward) to adjust the image height. If this isn't possible, use one of these methods to correct the image shape: ❏ If the image tapers inward on the right and left sides only, use Keystone correction as described on the next page. ❏ If the image looks uneven on all sides, or just on the top and bottom, you can adjust its shape using Quick Corner. You cannot use both Keystone correction and Quick Corner at the same time. 8 - EPSON PowerLite 8300i Projector 5/03

Adjusting the Image
Once you see your image, you may need to make certain
adjustments.
Focusing and Zooming Your Image
Use the
Focus
buttons on the remote control (or on the
projector) to sharpen the image.
Use the
Zoom
buttons to reduce or enlarge the image.
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-Zoom
buttons on the remote control to zoom in on a
portion of the image.
Note:
The Focus and Zoom buttons won’t work when the wide-
angle rear projection lens is installed.
Adjusting the Height of Your Image
If the image is too low on the screen, you can raise it using the
Lens Shift. This is the best method for adjusting the height of
the image. If you need to raise the image further, you can tilt
the projector upward by extending the feet.
Using the Lens Shift
To raise or lower the image, use the
Lens Shift
buttons on the
remote control (or on the projector).
Note:
The Lens Shift buttons won’t work when the wide-angle
rear projection lens is installed.
Raising the Projector’s Feet
If you need to raise the image further, you can incline the
projector:
1.
Stand behind the projector. Press the foot release buttons
on each side and lift the front of the projector.
2.
Once the image is positioned where you want it, release the
buttons to lock the feet in position.
3.
If necessary, you can level the picture or fine-tune the
height by turning the projector feet.
Raising the projector causes the image to distort or
“keystone,” but you can manually correct the shape as
described in the next section.
Adjusting the Image Shape
In most cases, you can maintain a square or rectangular image
by placing the projector directly in front of the center of the
screen and using the Lens Shift (instead of tilting the projector
upward) to adjust the image height.
If this isn’t possible, use one of these methods to correct the
image shape:
If the image tapers inward on
the right and left sides only,
use Keystone correction as
described on the next page.
If the image looks uneven on
all sides, or just on the top
and bottom, you can adjust
its shape using Quick Corner.
You cannot use both Keystone correction and Quick Corner
at the same time.
