Images Are Fuzzy, Out Of Focus, Or Distorted; Interference Or Distortion Appear In Images - Epson EB-G6170 User Manual

Problem Solving
Check
Are the image signals being output to the projector?
(Only when projecting images from a laptop computer or a
computer with a built-in LCD screen)

Images are fuzzy, out of focus, or distorted

Check
Is the focus adjusted correctly?
Is the projector at the correct distance?
Has condensation formed on the lens?
Are you using the optional short throw zoom lens (ELPLU01)?

Interference or distortion appear in images

Check
Is the image signal format setting correct?
(Only when projecting images from a video source)
If the image signals are only being output to the computer's LCD monitor or to the accessory monitor, you need to
change the output to an external destination as well as the computer's own monitor. For some computer models, when
the image signals are output externally, they no longer appear on the LCD monitor or accessory monitor.
If the connection is made while the power of the projector or computer is already turned on, the Fn key (Function key)
that changes the computer's image signal to external output may not work. Turn the power for the computer and the
projector off and then back on again.
s Computer's documentation
Turn the focus ring to adjust the focus.
s "Correcting the Focus" p.32
Is it projecting outside of the recommended projection distance range?
Setup within the recommended range.
s "Screen Size and Projection Distance"
If the projector is suddenly taken from a cold environment to a warm environment, or if sudden ambient temperature
changes occur, condensation may form on the surface of the lens, and this may cause the images to appear fuzzy. Set the
projector up in the room about one hour before it is used. If condensation forms on the lens, turn the projector off and
wait for the condensation to disappear.
Set the Lens Type to ELPLU01 from the configuration menu.
