ABSTRACT:
An electronic printer employing a bundle of optical fibers organizes the fiber ends in first and second faces of the bundle in a linear array and in an annulus or ring array respectively. A spinning prism is operative to image a linear array of light sources onto a segment of the annulus and move the image through a succession of positions to cover the entire area of the annulus in one revolution providing the pixels for a linear segment of a photosensitive medium optically coupled to the first face of the bundle.
