Abstract

PURPOSE:To heighten the measuring accuracy of a quantity of fluctuation in an optical scanner with high density by detecting the quantity of fluctuation from a time difference generated when a light beam from each plane of a rotary polygonal mirror passes through a slit. CONSTITUTION:A photodetector arranged at an arbitrary position on a main scan line and a triangular light transmissive slit 21 arranged on the photoreceiving plane 22 of the photodetector are provided. Such photodetector is assembled in a fluctuation quantity detector 7, and it is arranged so that the main scan line can pass the triangular slit 21. Next, the time difference generated when the light beam from each plane of the rotary polygonal mirror passes through the slit is found, and it is converted to a voltage equivalent to a relative quantity of fluctuation between light beams, then, it is detected. In such a way, not only no measuring value changes due to the secular change of an optical beam oscillator or the temperature change of the photodetector, but it is possible to detect the quantity of fluctuation of the light beam to be scanned at high speed in a subscan direction by the relative difference of each scan line with high accuracy, and to correct the fluctuation of the light beam in the subscan direction.
