possible, connect a different computer.
Problem: Projected colors don’t match the computer or video

Just as there are differences in the displays of different moni-

and the projected image. Adjust the brightness, tint and/or
contrast from the Display menu. See “Brightness” on page 25,
“Tint” on page 25 and “Contrast” on page 25.
Problem: Lamp seems to be getting dimmer
•
The lamp begins to lose brightness when it has been in use for
a long time. Replace the lamp as described in “Replacing the
Projection Lamp” on page 35.
Problem: Lamp shuts off

projector off, wait at least a minute, then turn it back on.
