If I could change one thing about the projector it would be for a larger copy area. I place mine on a rolling cart but am really considering now purchasing the Mobile Floor Stand basically because it will take up less space the adjustable height will be much more convenient. In the beginning, it took a bit of time to adjust the positioning and focusing to get it just right but the more I used it, the easier and faster it got to do so.

If your original image is larger than the copy area, you can remove the lid from the projector and move the original image and project and trace it section by section. The maximum copy area that the lens can see is 7 inches x 7 inches but the bigger the enlargement required, the less the copy area size becomes - usually down to 5 x 7 or 4 x 6.A reversible lens that allows an enlargement range of up to 20 times the original image and also that allows a reduction of 80% of the original image.
