The image is too dark or light, or the colors are incorrect. What should I do?

• If the projected image is too dark or light, or the colors are incorrect, try the following solutions:

  • Check the Color Space and Dynamic Range settings in the Signal menu and make sure they match the input signal. Select Auto for each setting.
  • Try selecting a color mode that best fits the image and environment.
  • Check your video source settings.
  • Adjust the available settings on the Image menu for the current input source, such as Brightness, Contrast, Tint, White Balance, and/or Color Saturation.
  • Make sure you selected the correct Video Range or EDID setting on the Signal menu, if available for your image source.
  • Make sure all the cables are securely connected to the projector and your video device. If you connected long cables, try connecting shorter cables.
  • Make sure the Light Output setting in the Image menu is set correctly.
  • Position the projector close enough to the screen.
  • If the above solutions do not correct your image, try resetting all of the projector's settings using the Reset menu.
