PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an optical scanning device and an image forming apparatus which have performance improved in fewer adjustment processes, even when position, attitude, and shape errors are generated in optical element components, thereby deviating an optical path from a design value and degrading performance. SOLUTION: The optical scanning device 1 includes a light deflection device adjusting mechanism configured to enable adjustment of an inclination quantity of the light deflection device 7 (polygon mirror 7a, polygon mirror 7b), a pre-deflection optical device adjusting mechanism, having a light source and a pre-deflection optical device attached thereon, configured to simultaneously enable adjustment of an overall position and attitude of the light source and the pre-deflection optical device, and a post-deflection optical device adjusting mechanism configured to change a position and/or angle in a sub scanning direction of the light beam emitted from the image forming lens. The image forming apparatus includes an optical scanning device. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI |
