A laser beam optical scanning device which has a laser diode, a collimator lens, a cylindrical lens, a polygonal scanner and an f theta lens. The polygonal scanner is made of resin, and when the polygonal scanner is driven to rotate, the reflective facets of the polygonal scanner are distorted to be concave or convex because of a centrifugal force. If the reflective facets are distorted to be concave with rotation of the polygonal scanner, the image surface shifts along the optical axis toward the polygonal scanner. Therefore, in this case, the elements of the optical scanning device are positioned such that the image surface is located behind a light receiving surface while the polygonal scanner is stationary and is located nearer to the light receiving surface while the polygonal scanner is rotating.
