If you do not want to use the distance table, you can use the following equations to help  
determine where to install the projector relative to the screen.  
Calculating projection distances  
distance from lens to screen = A × width of screen  
minimum and maximum distance from screen = B  
width of screen = 0.8 × diagonal of screen (for 3:4 screen)  
projector lens below bottom of screen = C × width of screen (for 4:3 screen)  
A = 2.0 to 2.3  
B = 1.5 to 10 m (5 to 33 ft)  
C = 0.11 to 0.50

Turning the projector off  
1. Press the power button on the projector or remote control to turn off the projector. Do not  
hold the button down.  
The power button blinks during the cool-down period, then the projector turns off. Even  
though the projector is off, it uses a small amount of power internally.  
2. If you want, disconnect video and audio equipment from the projector during the cool-  
down period or after the power button stops blinking.  
CAUTION: Do not disconnect power until the projector has cooled down (the fan stops) and  
the power button stops blinking. Otherwise, you might shorten the life of the lamp.  
3. If you must unplug or remove the projector, wait until the power light stops blinking, then  
unplug the power cord.  
If you try to turn on the projector again during the cool-down period, it will not turn on. Wait  
until the cool-down period ends and the power button stops blinking.  
Moving the projector  
When moving the projector:  
Allow the projector to cool down before moving it. Then disconnect all cables.  
Avoid bumps and jolts. Use a carrying case or padded container when possible.  
Observe temperature and humidity limits (see “Specifications” on page 55). If the projector  
is cold, allow it to warm gradually to avoid condensation.

Getting the projector status  
To get the projector status:  
S Press the enter button on the projector or remote control and go to Help.  
This screen shows information and status for the projector.  
Cleaning the projector and lens  
You can clean the projector housing using a soft, dry cloth.  
You can clean the front lens of the projector using the following recommendations. You cannot  
clean any of the internal surfaces.  
To minimize the risk of damaging or scratching the lens surface, blow dust particles off the  
lens with clean, dry, deionized air.  
If this method does not work, use the following method:  
a. Wipe the lens in a single direction with a clean, dry cloth. Do not wipe back and forth  
across the lens.  
b. If the cloth is dirty or smears the lens, wash the cloth. If the cloth is still dirty after  
washing it or the fabric is damaged, replace it.  
CAUTION: Cleaning requires special consideration:  
Do not spray any type of fluid or cleaner directly on the lens surface. Cleaners might  
damage the lens.  
Do not use fabric softener when washing a cleaning cloth or softener sheets when drying  
the cloth. Chemicals on the cloth might damage the surface of the lens.  
Do not store a cleaning cloth in contact with the lens for a long time because doing so  
contaminates the lens with dye from the cloth. The cloth can be contaminated if left in the  
open air.

Replacing the lamp module  
As the projector operates over time, the brightness of the projector lamp gradually decreases  
and the lamp becomes more susceptible to breakage. You can install a new lamp at any time  
to bring the projector up to factory-fresh brightness. We recommend replacing the lamp if a  
warning message is displayed.  
WARNING! Replacing the lamp module requires special consideration:  
To reduce the risk of injury, be careful when removing the lamp module as broken glass  
might be present. If the lamp is broken, contact HP about repairs that might be required  
due to glass fragments.  
This digital projector lamp contains a small amount of mercury. If the lamp breaks,  
adequately ventilate the area where the breakage occurred, discard any nearby food and  
drink, and thoroughly clean the table surface around the projector. Wash your hands after  
cleaning the area or handling a broken lamp. Disposal of this lamp may be regulated due  
to environmental considerations. For disposal or recycling information, please contact your  
information about the lamp at:  
Because the lamp assembly operates at a very high temperature, wait 30 minutes before  
removing the lamp module.  
1. Turn off the projector and allow it to cool for 30 minutes.  
2. Unplug the power cord.  
3. Turn the projector over onto a soft surface.  
4. Loosen the two screws 1 holding the lamp cover and remove the cover.

5 Installing Permanently  
Installing the projector  
Choosing cables  
If you are permanently installing the projector or using it with long cables, consider the  
following suggestions when planning the installation:  
Use high-quality cables. Use only video cables that are made with 75-ohm coaxial cable  
and connectors. For high-resolution video, use low-loss video cables. For standard audio,  
use audio cables that are shielded. For digital audio, use 75-ohm coaxial cables.  
Minimize cable length as much as possible. For video cables longer than 6 m (20 ft), use  
low-loss coaxial cables. For standard audio cables longer than 6 m (20 ft), use 12-gauge  
wire.  
Do not run audio or video cables next to power or network cables. If they must cross, cross  
them at 90 degrees.  
If you are installing cables in walls, use cables with necessary approvals, such as  
Underwriters Laboratories (UL) approval.  
If you are running cables above a dropped ceiling, you must use plenum-rated cables if the  
space above the ceiling is open to the space above other rooms. You must use plenum-  
rated cables if you are running cables in a duct.  
Before installing cables permanently, check the setup with the final cables in the open.  
Installing on a table

rear projection.  
See “Setting up the projector” on page 13 for more instructions.  
2. Press enter, go to Setup > Picture orientation. Then select Rear Normal.  
Locking the projector  
The projector includes a built in slot to secure the projector with a cable and lock (such as the  
Kensington MicroSaver lock system, available at many computer stores).  
1. Wrap the cable around a secure object, such as a table leg. Loop the cable to create a slip  
knot around the stationary object, and be sure it cannot slip off.  
2. Insert the lock 1 into the hole and twist the key 2.

• Be sure that the power cable is securely connected to the projector and the other end is  
plugged into an outlet with power.  
• Press the power button again.  
• Unplug the power cord for 15 seconds, then plug it in and press the power button  
again.  
Picture problems  
If a “scanning” or “waiting” message is displayed on a blank screen:  
• Press the source button on the projector or remote control one or more times until the  
correct source name is selected.  
• Be sure the external source is turned on and connected.  
• For a computer connection, ensure your notebook computer’s external video port is  
turned on. Refer to the computer manual. On some notebooks, for example, press the  
FN+F4 or FN+F5 function keys to turn on the external video port.  
If the wrong input source is displayed:  
• Press the source button on the projector or the remote control one or more times to select  
another active input source.  
If the image is out of focus:  
• Be sure the lens cover is removed.  
• While displaying the on-screen menu, adjust the focus ring. (The image size should not  
change; if it does, you are adjusting the zoom, not the focus.)  
• Ensure the projection screen is 1.5 to 10 m (5 to 33 ft) from the projector.  
• Check the projection lens to see if it needs cleaning.  
• For a computer connection, set the display resolution as the computer to the same  
resolution as the projector, 1024 × 768 (see “Specifications” on page 55). If the  
computer has multiple monitors, adjust the resolution of the monitor assigned to the  
projector.  
• For a computer connected to the S-video port, the picture cannot be as high resolution  
as what you see on the computer display.

If an upside-down or reversed image is displayed:  
• The projector has been set to the wrong position setting. Press enter, go to Setup >  
Picture orientation, and select the correct setting.  
If the image is too small or too large:  
• Adjust the zoom ring on top of the projector.  
• Move the projector closer to or farther from the screen.  
• On the projector or remote control, press the picture mode  
button one or more times  
to see if one of the picture modes makes the image the correct size.  
• Press enter, go to Picture > Customize picture mode > Aspect ratio. Try the different  
settings.  
• If the source device sends wide-screen output, press enter, go to Input, and try setting  
Widescreen input to Yes. Otherwise, set it to No.  
If the image has slanted sides:  
• As much as possible, reposition the projector so that it is centered on the screen and  
below the bottom of the screen.  
• The projector can automatically correct slanted sides of the picture when the projector is  
tilted up or down. However, additional corrections might be required in certain  
situations. Press enter and go to Quick choice > Keystone. Adjust the setting as needed,  
or enable or disable the automatic keystone correction.  
If the image is stretched:  
• On the projector or remote control, press the picture mode  
button one or more times  
to see if one of the picture modes makes the image the correct size.  
• Press enter, go to Picture > Customize picture mode > Aspect ratio. Try the different  
settings.  
• If the source device sends wide-screen output, press enter, go to Input, and try setting  
Widescreen input to Yes. Otherwise, set it to No.  
If the projected colors seem slightly wrong:  
• See Adjusting the picture for best color” on page 34.  
• Press enter, go to Help > Diagnostics, and run the color test.

If the projected colors seem completely wrong:  
• Be sure the pins on the cable connectors are not bent or broken.  
• Press enter, go to Picture > Color settings > Color space. Try the different settings.  
• Press enter, go to Help > Diagnostics, and run the color test.  
• Press enter, go to Picture > Color settings > Reset color settings, and press enter.  
• Press enter, go to Setup > Reset all settings, and press enter.  
If the picture is not clear (ghost images, smearing, poor quality):  
• Be sure the video cable you are using is coaxial cable rated at 75 ohms. Any other  
cable or impedance rating can reduce picture quality.  
• The video cable connecting the video source to the projector probably must be higher  
quality. See “Choosing cables” on page 47.  
If several picture settings seem completely wrong and you cannot fix them:  
• Press enter, go to Picture > Color settings > Reset color settings, and press enter.  
• Press enter, go to Setup > Reset all settings, and press enter.  
If a scrolling or cut-off image is displayed for a computer connection:  
• Press the auto sync button on the projector or remote control.  
• Turn everything off. Then power on the projector first and power on the notebook or  
desktop computer second.  
• If the previous steps do not correct the display image, adjust the resolution of the  
notebook or desktop computer to the same resolution as the projector, 1024 × 768  
(see “Specifications” on page 55). If the computer has multiple monitors, adjust the  
resolution of the monitor assigned to the projector.  
If the image is flickering or unstable for a computer connection:  
• Press the auto sync button on the projector or remote control.  
• Press enter, go to Picture > VGA settings, and adjust Frequency or Tracking.  
If the image disappears from the computer screen:  
• For a notebook computer, you might be able to turn on both the external VGA port and  
the built-in screen. Refer to the computer manual.  
If text or lines from a computer display seem rough or uneven:  
• Check the focus adjustment.  
• Press enter, go to Quick choice > Keystone, and adjust the setting to 0.

Sound problems  
If no sound is coming out of the projector:  
• Be sure you have an audio cable securely connected between the projector and the  
source device.  
• Press enter, go to Quick choice, and check that Mute is turned off and Volume is correct.  
• Press enter, go to Help > Diagnostics, and run the sound test.  
• Be sure that the mute and volume settings are correct on the source device, such as a  
VCR, camcorder, or computer.  
Interruption problems  
If the projector stops responding to all controls:  
• If possible, turn off the projector, then unplug the power cord and wait at least 15  
seconds before reconnecting power.  
If the lamp shuts off during a show:  
• A minor power surge might cause the lamp to shut off. This is normal. Wait a few  
minutes, then power on the projector.  
• If a red warning light is on or blinking, see “Warning light problems” on page 49.  
If the lamp burns out or makes a popping sound:  
• If the lamp burns out and makes a popping sound, the projector will not turn back on  
until the lamp module has been replaced.  
• If the lamp breaks, contact HP about repairs that might be required due to glass  
fragments.  
Remote control problems  
If the remote control does not operate:  
• Be sure nothing is blocking the remote control receiver on the front or back of the  
projector. Move to within 9 m (30 ft) of the projector.  
• Aim the remote control at the screen or at the front or back of the projector.  
• Move the remote control so it is more directly in front of or behind the projector and not  
as far to the side.  
• Press enter, go to Help > Diagnostics, and run the remote control test.  
• Replace the battery in the remote control.
