INTRODUCTION
The In Focus LP 420™ is specifically designed for the mobile pre-
senter. It packs SVGA graphics with 16.7 million colors into a
small, 6.8 pound package. It generates crisp, clear images using
Digital Light Processing™ (DLP) technology. The LP 420 is easy
to connect, easy to use, and easy to maintain.
NOTE: The 420 automatically
expands 640x480 images to
800x600. You can display these
images at 640x480 by turning off
the Auto Resize feature. See “Auto
Resize” on page 20 for more infor-
mation.

The SVGA resolution of the 420’s projected image is 800x600.
Screen resolutions between 800x600 and 1024x768 are com-
pressed to 800x600. The 420 cannot compress screen resolutions
above 1024x768. If your computer’s screen resolution is higher
than 1024x768, reset it to a lower resolution before you connect
the 420.
