• The top of your monitor screen should be at or
slightly below eye level. Most HP monitors come
with a tilt-and-swivel feature that makes it easy to
adjust the screen position. If your monitor doesn’t
have this feature, consider acquiring an accessory
that provides this capability.
• To avoid obscuring your view, the screen should
be positioned perpendicular to your line of sight;
that is, straight on.
• To avoid glare or reflection, try to position the
monitor so the screen is at a right angle to your
window rather than in front of it. If reflection or
glare persists, tilting the screen forward may
help. If this adjustment is not sufficient, it may be
necessary to change either the position of the
monitor on your work surface, or the location of
your work surface. If reflection or glare is still a
problem, find out where it is coming from.
Common sources of glare are overhead lights,

windows, or reflections from shiny surfaces
including pictures or even bright clothing. See if
there is a way to control the source of the
problem (see “Lighting” on page 10). If that
doesn’t work, try a high-quality anti-glare filter or
a screen hood.
• Maintain a comfortable viewing distance to the
screen. Most people prefer a viewing distance of
approximately 46 to 76 cm (18 to 30 inches),
depending on monitor size. Character size and
the amount of space available on the work
surface can affect this distance.
