ABSTRACT:
Hard imaging methods, hard imaging device fabrication methods, hard imaging devices, hard imaging device optical scanning systems, and articles of manufacture are described. A hard imaging method includes providing image data corresponding to a hard image to be formed and generating light responsive to the image data. The method further includes scanning the light to form a latent image corresponding to the hard image to be formed and accessing correction data corresponding to scanning errors of a scan lens intermediate a rotating reflection device and a photoconductor. The method also includes modifying the image data using the correction data before the generating and the modifying including modifying to reduce the introduction of image errors resulting from the scanning using the scan lens.
