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 zoom or any other settings.
