A method of and system a system for generating scan lines having different beam characteristics. In one embodiment, the beam is focused at different distances depending upon the scan line. A system may comprise a light source generating a reading beam, a suitable scanning mechanism such as a polygon mirror having a plurality of mirror facets, a beam correction plate in the beam path mounted to the facet wheel and rotating therewith. The reading beam passes through the correction plate and is then reflected off the mirror facet, the correction plate adjusting a beam characteristic, such as beam focus, scan angle, or beam power, for each mirror facet or portion of a mirror facet.
