Support Projectors PowerLite Series Epson PowerLite X12

I see static or noise in the image. What should I do?

  • Try the following solutions:
    • Check the cables connecting your computer or video source to the projector. They should be:
      • Separated from the power cord to prevent interference
      • Securely connected at both ends
      • Not connected to an extension cable
    • If you are projecting from a laptop computer, try turning off simultaneous display on the laptop screen to avoid splitting the video signal.
    • Check the settings on the projector's Signal menu to make sure they match the video source. If available for your video source, adjust the Progressive and Noise Reduction settings.
    • Select a computer video resolution that is compatible with the projector.
    • If you are projecting from a computer, press the Auto button on the remote control to automatically adjust the Tracking and Sync settings.
    • If you adjusted the image shape using the projector controls, try decreasing the Sharpness setting to improve image quality.
    • If you connected an extension cable, try projecting without it to see if it caused interference in the signal.
    • Try using another cable.
