Light scanning device and image forming apparatus

摘要

A light scanning device adjusts scanning speed uniformity with high accuracy to obtain an image having fine absolute position accuracy. The light scanning device is mounted on an image forming apparatus. The light scanning device includes a scanning speed uniformity adjusting mechanism that can move a reflection mirror around the axis that is orthogonal to a main scanning corresponding direction and parallel to a reflection surface of the reflection mirror. The light scanning device further includes a scanning line inclination adjusting mechanism that can move an optical element around the axis orthogonal to the main scanning corresponding direction and orthogonal to the sub-scanning corresponding direction. The optical element has a function of adjusting a scanning line position.
