Support Projectors PowerLite Series Epson PowerLite 585W

Can my product do rear projection?

  • Yes. You can change the projection mode using the remote control or by changing a menu setting.

    Projection Modes

    Depending on how you positioned the projector, you may need to change the projection mode so your images project correctly.

    • Front/Upside Down (default setting) flips the image over top-to-bottom to project upside-down from a wall or ceiling mount.
    • Front lets you project from a table in front of the screen.
    • Rear/Upside Down flips the image over top-to-bottom and horizontally to project from the wall or ceiling and behind a translucent screen.
    • Rear flips the image horizontally to project from behind a translucent screen.

    You can change the projection mode using the remote control or by changing the Projection setting in the Extended menu.
