Using KODAK Image Manager
With one click, Kodak’s exclusive Image Manager lets you choose 
the best image settings for your presentation type.
Important:The KODAK Image Manager settings work best if you 
select Reset from the Adjust tab each time before selecting 
an Image Manager setting.
1. Press Menu and use the Adjust + - buttons to move to the Kodak tab.
2. Press Next to move to the appropriate Image Manager feature.
3. Press Enter to select that feature.
4. Press Menu to dismiss the menu or wait for the menu to close 
(about 15 seconds).
Photos (PC) matches the higher contrast found on a standard PC 
monitor. This feature is best for:
• images created on a PC
• images from a KODAK digital camera
• a starting point for video input.
Photos (MAC) matches the lower contrast found on a standard 
MACINTOSH monitor. It is generally used for images created on or 
for a MACINTOSH. This setting also works well with a PC if you are 
using higher than normal contrast PC images.
Rich Colors results in an image with deep contrast and saturated 
vibrant colors. It is generally used under bright lighting conditions. 
This setting works well to enhance colors of certain graphics and it 
may be useful when images created for a MACINTOSH are displayed 
from a PC.
Spreadsheets results in an image with contrast between a PC and 
MACINTOSH monitor. It is generally used for text-rich tables, such 
as financial displays. This setting factors in ambient light, subject 
matter, and personal preferences to deliver the right balance of 
contrast and brightness.
Graphics delivers the high contrast needed to project graphics and 
text against solid colored backgrounds.

English
Projection options are front, rear and ceiling. 
• Front projection is used for projecting straight ahead 
onto a screen. 
• Rear projection reverses the image if you wish to project 
from behind the screen. 
• Use ceiling projection when you attach the projector to a 
permanent ceiling bracket. (To purchase the optional 
ceiling mount kit go to our Web site at 
www.kodak.com/go/projectors
.)
H Position and V Position adjustments are available only for images 
from a computer. 
Adjust Frequency and Tracking of images from a computer until the 
image is evenly spaced, fuzzy vertical lines disappear, or the 
projected image is as wide as the menu.
Video Format refers to the height and width ratio of the projected 
image. The 4:3 ratio is the standard format. Use the 16:9 ratio when 
projecting wide screen (anamorph) movies in 16:9 format.
We recommend leaving AGC (Automatic Gain Control) turned on. 
When it is turned on, the image is automatically adjusted if the video 
signal is too strong or too weak.
