How To Flip Projector Image Upside Down Epson

What is the projection mode of your Epson projector? How do you want your projector to display images? These are some of the basic questions that you need to tackle while installing the projector in your home or office.

There are many modes of projection given by an Epson projector to let you choose the ideal one according to your situation.

For instance, if you need a portable projector that can be used for conferences wherever required then a tabletop projector would be the best thing for you that can be handy for moving to places.

But if you want to get your projection fixed at a point then a ceiling projector is the best thing. Ceiling or mounted are the most common projectors and the suitable for all needs.

But using a ceiling-mounted projector requires a couple of settings to give the desired display. This is because when a projector is mounted with the ceiling it is designed to project at the front and the image will be either horizontal in case of a rear-projection mode or the default front projection with a mirrored display in front of you.

Both of these projection modes (Front and Rear) are not suitable for a wall-mounted or ceiling-mounted projector. The ideal display for a ceiling projector is an upside-down display that is not given by default with the Epson projector.

So, what can be done to get this upside-down imagery? This is not a very complex problem and you can easily switch between the projection modes to meet your needs.

You can flip a horizontal display into an upside-down by following a few general instructions that apply to most of the brands including Epson projectors.
