Setting up the projector
Planning your layout
Consider the following suggestions when planning your room layout:
■
Select the projector and screen positions and the screen size according to
your room layout and the distance chart below. The zoom control on the
projector gives you some flexibility.
■
Be sure the projector is centered on the screen and perpendicular to it.
Otherwise, the picture might look lopsided.

■
For the best picture, consider purchasing a quality projection screen. Some
screens are designed for wide-angle viewing, while others are designed to
concentrate brightness in the center. A flat surface colored white or light
gray will also give acceptable results.
For the most comfortable viewing, center your seating around the projection
line-of-sight. Depending on the screen material, viewing from far off center
might be unsatisfactory.
■
■
■
The best viewing distance is roughly the same distance from the screen as
the projector, but personal preferences vary widely.
If possible, place the bottom of the screen slightly above the level of the
projector.
Design the room so you can control the ambient light. Most people prefer
viewing with minimal lighting, but you can have acceptable results if you
limit ambient light on the screen. Bright room lighting might cause a
washed-out picture.
■
■
The most common video source is a DVD player, but sources can also
include devices, such as an audio/video receiver, VCR, hard disk video
recorder, video gaming device, or satellite receiver.
Depending on your personal setup, try to locate devices to minimize the
lengths of cables connecting them to the projector. If any cable is more than
3 m (10 ft), consider using high-quality, low-loss cables for best video and
audio quality.
■
■
For the ultimate home-theater experience, consider including a 5.1 surround
sound system, such as a Dolby Digital system. This system has five speakers
and a subwoofer.
For an external sound system, see the following diagram for a possible
speaker layout. Place all front speakers at the same distance from the
listener. Place the subwoofer near a wall or corner. Place surround speakers
at least as high as the listener’s head. Experiment with the speaker
placement.

Setting up
Connecting power
1. Place the projector on a stable platform located 1 to 10 m (3 to 33 ft) in front
of the screen. Ideally, the platform should be lower than the bottom of the
screen.
Do not place the projector on a soft surface, such as carpet or loose cloth.
This will severely limit the sound from the subwoofer.
✎
2. Connect one end of the power cord to the back of the projector 1 and the
other end to a grounded electrical outlet 2.

Connecting a video source
The internal DVD player provides optimal picture quality and the convenience of
a single remote control. If you connect an external video source, you should
consider picture quality.
Many video devices have more than one type of output port. When you connect
the device to the projector, choose the connection that provides the best picture
quality. Relative picture qualities are indicated by stars in the following diagram.
If you have several video sources, you can connect them to the different ports, or
you can connect them to an audio/video receiver and connect the receiver to the
projector (see “Connecting several video sources” on page 27).
The cables shown in the following sections are not included with the projector. If
you do not have an external audio system, you can connect the audio output from
the external video source to the projector audio input.
If you already have a home theater system with a TV, you can probably
connect the projector in place of the TV as the viewing device.

Maintaining the projector
Getting the projector status
To get the projector status, press the menu button on the projector or remote
control and go to Help. This screen shows information and status for the
projector.
Cleaning the projector lens
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.
Cleaning requires special consideration:
Ä
■ 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.

Maintaining the projector
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.
Replacing the lamp module requires special consideration:
Å
■ 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.
■ The lamp contains a small amount of mercury. If the lamp breaks,
adequately ventilate the area where the breakage occurred. Disposal of
this lamp might be regulated due to environmental considerations. For
disposal or recycling information, contact your local authorities or the
■ 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. Loosen the 3 screws 1 on the front cover and pull out the front cover until
the tab 2 at the right end comes out of the projector 3.
4. Loosen the two screws 4 on the lamp module, and pull out the module 5.

Fixing problems
If the red lamp light is on or blinking:
❏ Allow the projector to cool down after it turns off. If the warning light
turns on or blinks after you restart the projector, install a new lamp. If
this occurs after you install a new lamp module, remove and reinstall the
lamp module. If a new lamp does not fix the problem, contact HP for
assistance.
If the red lamp light is flickering quickly:
❏ Check that the cover around the lamp at the front of the projector is
correctly installed and fully attached. Check the tab at the right side of
the cover and the screw at the left side.

Fixing problems
❏ The type of disc you inserted might not be supported by the internal
DVD player. If so, you cannot play this type of disc.
❏ For a DVD, check its region code. Most DVDs have a region code
marked near the center hole. Compare its region code with the region
code for a DVD that plays properly on your projector. The projector can
play DVDs from only one region.
If a disc in the tray does not automatically play:
❏ A disc automatically starts playing only at the time you close the tray. If a
disc is already loaded in the tray, press the play/pause button to start
playing.
❏ If the projector is off, nothing happens if you insert a disc that is not
supported by the internal DVD player.
