The image is blurry.
Adjust the focus using the focus ring.
Make sure the lens cap is off.
There may be dirt or smears on the lens. Clean the lens as
described on page 70.
Make sure the lens is not fogged by condensation. You may need
to wait before using the projector after moving it from a cold
environment.
Make sure the projection distance is within the range described on
page 14.
Adjust the Sharpness setting on the Image menu (see page 54).
You should be able to see the effect on the screen immediately.
You see vertical stripes or the image still looks blurry after
trying the solutions in the previous section.
If you’re projecting from a computer and displaying an image that
contains a lot of fine detail, you may notice one or more vertical
stripes or bands, or some of the characters may look heavy or
blurred. Press the
Auto button on the remote control. This resets
the projector’s tracking and sync settings.
If further adjustment is needed, you can fine-tune the Tracking
and
Sync settings manually using the Signal menu as described
on page 56.
1. Fill the screen with an image containing fine detail when
making these adjustments. For example, in Windows you can
select a pattern to appear as your desktop background. Or try
projecting black text on a white background.
2. Adjust the
Tracking to eliminate vertical stripes.
3. Adjust the
Sync to increase the sharpness of the image.
