Projector Placement
You can place the projector on almost any flat surface to project an image.
You can also install the projector in a ceiling mount if you want to use it in a fixed location.
Keep these considerations in mind as you select a projector location:
• Place the projector on a sturdy, level surface or install it using a compatible mount.
• 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.

Projector Setup and Installation Options
You can set up or install your projector in the following ways:
28
Front
Rear
Front/Ceiling mounted
29
Rear/Ceiling mounted
Note: Be sure to leave at least 20 inches (50 cm) of space in front of the air exhaust and intake vents
and, when setting up multiple projectors, 20 inches (50 cm) of space between the projectors.
30
If you mount the projector for standard lamp use, you can tilt it at the following angles:
• Vertically: Any angle up to ±100°.
• Horizontally: Within the range of ±5°.
If you mount the projector for portrait lamp use, you can tilt it at the following angles:
• Vertically: Any angle up to ±10°.
• Horizontally: Within the range of up to ±10°.
31
Note: The optional installation frame (ELPMB44) and portrait lamps (ELPLP83/ELPLP84) are required
when using portrait projection. Be sure to mount the projector with the air intake vent facing down and at
least 4 inches (10 cm) of space between the projector and the mounting surface as shown.
If you project from the ceiling, remove the projector's feet and attach the foot covers as shown.
Note: Do not remove the projector's handles.

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.) You can also
use the projector Throw Distance Calculator at epson.com/support (U.S.) or epson.ca/support (Canada).
