Setting Up the Projector
PowerLite W8+ (16:9 image)
Projector Placement Options
When projecting from the front, you should place the projector
directly in front of the center of the screen, facing the screen squarely.
The center of the lens should be about level with the bottom of the
screen.
If you place the projector below screen level, you may need to tilt it up
by extending the front adjustable foot. Tilting the projector causes the
image to become “keystone” shaped, but you can correct the
distortion (see page 45). The EX51/PowerLite W8+ may be able to
correct the distortion automatically.
