How will it affect my picture if I mount my projector about 10" off of center?
Will it even be noticable?
Thanks

that of course depends on the PJ..if you have lens shift, no problem. If you don't have lens shift and you need to rotate the PJ to compenstate for it, then you will end up with a distorted image...you can use Keystoning to attempt to fix it, but it's far from ideal

When in doubt read your manual.

No lens shift on your IN72. :(

10 inches off center on a projector that does not have horizontal lens shift seems like a lot, but you can try it out to see what you end up with. Better to mount it dead center.

chief makes accessory to be used with their mounts that allows for side to side adjustment....but I don't think 10 inches...that's quite a lot. go to www.mountsandmore.com under Chief and their accessory line.
