Projector Placement
Your ultra-short throw projector is designed to be installed on a wall or vertically on a table (with a table
mount) to create an interactive tabletop workspace.
Keep these considerations in mind as you select a projector location:
• Follow the instructions in the Installation Guide to install the projector using the included mounting
equipment.
• Leave plenty of space around and under the projector for ventilation, and do not place it on top of or
next to anything that could block the vents.
• Position the projector within reach of a grounded electrical outlet or extension cord.
• If installing vertically on a desk or table, the table projection mount (V12H516020) is required.

Projection Distance
The distance at which you place the projector from the screen determines the approximate size of the
image. The image size increases the farther the projector is from the screen, but can vary depending on
the zoom factor, aspect ratio, and other settings.
Use the tables here to determine approximately how far to place the projector from the screen based on
the size of the projected image. (Conversion figures may have been rounded up or down.) For more
detailed information and installation instructions, see the Installation Guide. You can also use the
projector Throw Distance Calculator at epson.com/support (U.S.) or epson.ca/support (Canada).

B setting in the projector's Extended menu before you can project through the USB port. Note that using
36
USB Display will slow interactive pen function. For the best performance, VGA or HDMI connections are
recommended.

cannot use this feature at the same time you are using the pens with your computer.
1.Connect the USB cable to your projector's USB-B port.
2.Connect the other end to any available USB port on your computer.
39
If you want to use the remote control as a wireless mouse, you need to change the USB Type B setting
