ABSTRACT:
The temperature and humidity around a photoreceptor drum and the total number of copied sheets of the photoreceptor drum are detected. Data LDATA for setting the intensity of a laser beam and data BDATA for setting the beam diameter according to the detected results are provided from an image control circuit to a laser drive circuit and a collimator lens drive circuit. The laser drive circuit corrects the intensity of the laser beam output from an LD package according to LDATA, and the collimator lens drive circuit controls the position of the collimator lens according to BDATA to correct the beam diameter of the laser beam.
