A laser scanning unit in which a digital micro mirror device is used as a laser beam deflecting device and which is used in a laser printer, a facsimile unit, and the like. The laser scanning unit according to the present invention includes a laser diode for emitting laser beams, a photo-sensitive drum for receiving the laser beams emitted by the laser diode, and a deflecting device which is disposed between the laser diode and the photo-sensitive drum, for deflecting the laser beams toward the photo-sensitive drum. The deflecting device comprises a reflecting member for reflecting the laser beams emitted from the laser diode toward the photo-sensitive drum at a predetermined angle, a rotating member for rotating the reflecting member at a range of predetermined angles, and a supporting member for supporting the reflecting member so that the reflecting member can be rotated.
