Doing so will eliminate the need for Keystone correction and provide the best image quality. Note • The projector lens should be centered in the middle of the screen. If the horizontal line passing through the lens center is not perpendicular to the screen, the image will be distorted, making viewing difficult.
The projection screen size varies according to the distance from the lens of the projector to the screen. The optional lenses from EIKI are also available for specialized application. Please see your nearest EIKI Authorized Dealer to details on all the lenses. (Refer to the lens owner’s manual when using a lens.) Also, be sure to have service personnel install the optional lenses.
