Unpacking the Projector
After unpacking the projector, make sure you have all these parts:
Save all packaging in case you need to ship the projector. Always use 
the original packaging (or the equivalent) when you need to send the 
projector to another location. If you are moving the projector by 
hand, use the projector handle. See page 143 for transportation 
instructions.

Depending on how you plan to use the projector, you may need 
additional components:
■To receive an HDMI signal from your video device, you’ll need 
an HDMI cable. One may be provided with your video

you’ll need a component video cable. One may be provided with 
your video equipment.

■To receive an S-Video signal, you’ll need an S-Video cable. One

Positioning the Projector 
If the projector isn’t already installed in the room you’re using, you’ll 
probably want to place it on a table in front of the screen. This lets 
you stand in the front of the room, face the audience, and remain 
close enough to the equipment to be able to control it. Try to leave as 
much space as possible between the projector and the screen to get a 
good-size image. 
Use the illustrations and tables below to help you determine 
placement. Image size increases with distance, but can vary depending 
on which lens you’re using and whether you’ve adjusted the image 
with vertical lens shift, zoom, or any other settings.
You can also use the Image Size Calculator
 on the Epson website.
note
You can mount the projector 
on the ceiling, or place it 
behind a translucent screen 
for rear projection. See 
page 163 for details.
