How far out from the edge of the table does the projector position? When projecting on the floor does the table shadow interfere?

Robert, I have never used the projector to project onto the floor (just onto my work table). It looks like it would project out about 12-18" from the edge of the table it is secured to... with the track lighting I have, there would be no shadow. Not sure how helpful this is since, again, I do not use the project in this fashion.

I've had it 20 feet away from screen, image was great. Haven't tried it further because I speak with laptop and projector up front with me. Hope this helps.

I've never used the projector over it's maximum distance, but it has worked very well in medium sized conference or meeting rooms. It is bright enough that the room need not be totally darkened. Low lighting in the room still allows for a clear picture on the screen.

I think it really depends on how close to the wall/screen you are mounting the projector. Mine is 16 feet from the front of the projector to the wall and easily covers every bit of my 10' 8" (diagonal) screen with excellent resolution. So from 12 feet you should be able to project a very large quality image.

I've used the projector within 4 feet of the screen. Adjustment is easy from the menu. In bright room, screen is picking up ambient light, but picture quality is still good - for presentation purposes.

The projector at 10 ft would throw a very large display probably 110" the problem these projectors have with text is that they use a diamond pixel instead of a square pixel so the edges of text can be fuzzy. If you are using this in a presentation or business environment it will not be bright enough with any light of any magnitude. An open window will wash out colors and contrast. Go with the ml500 (same diamond pixel problem but brighter) or choose a laser / led hybrid with a different dlp chip. I'm not saying this isn't a good projector for its purpose (portability) but if text is your first consideration and portability comes in at a five or six in the list then this isn't the right one for you.

You can get the vertical line to project on the table depending on the relative height, but the horizontal line can only project at a level line. What is the purpose?

I know it has to be above the screen but not sure on the distance. You should call their tech support. They are very helpful and give them the screen size and heigh of screen and they will tell you how far back and up it has to go from screen. This is by far the best projector I have tried. Awesome 3d if you get the RF glasses and transmitter.

This projector has a big picture. Mine gives us a 75" screen at 7' away. If the ratio holds, your diagonal screen distance would be 14'. I'm pretty sure Epson has a calculator for this on their website

I believe you can get that answer on their website. The further back you place the projector, the wider the expanse. Of course if you go too far back, the lights are dim. It goes up pretty high in my trees.

Interesting question. I can't answer the max distance from the screen, but my projector is 14 feet from the screen ( 110 inch ) and it works great at that distance. I feel it could go back another 3-4 feet and the picture would still be as good.feel free to ask me any other questions you have.Thanks and good luck,Keith

this is an interesting projector. very large projected images...within 30 inches of a wall or screen. the projector lens is actually convex hence the "short throw" feature. as you move the projector away from the wall or screen, it very quickly becomes extremely large...approximately 8' hign about 6' from the wall

It depends on the distance of the projector, mine is set to 12 feet and it projects atleast 100" size of my screen is 140" and it just have less than 2" not occupied on each side, and chrystal clear...this is 3D HD...I'm very please with this projector for it's value. The further distance the bigger the screen.

I think it would work well if you have a place to put it a straight shot to the screen. I have it 22 feet from the screen and it projects a 210" projection. I think it doesn't do too well with a lot of lighting. You can always try it and return it to Amazon if you're not satisfied. I'm very satisfied with it myself.

When you set the lights, they should cross each other, thus canceling out any shadows the subject casts on the screen. I've used the screen 5-6 times. Haven't had any issues as of yet.

I use a large image size albeit at a shorter throw distance. At 50' Some quick calculations tell me that the minimum 16:9 aspect projection will be ~319" diagonal (~8,100mm) or ~278" (~7060mm) by ~156.4" (~3970mm).This is ok, if the room is fairly dark during projection although this is entirely subjective.I believe it is also important to check if the vertical shift is acceptable to you as the image will be about 54" (~1360mm) above the normal plane of the projector (or below if ceiling mounted).All aside, page 18 of the freely downloadable manual will likely be more helpful than any subjective explanations.

I have mine set for 10 feet away to project about a 45 inch screen. I bought a pull-down blind at Home depot for $50 that covers 7 feet by 5. Much cheaper than a projection screen.
