ABSTRACT:
A scanner includes a light source for producing a light beam and a multifaceted polygon for directing the light beam to a spot on a surface to be scanned, such as at the surface of a photoreceptor or a document to be read, that is located at a predetermined location relative to the polygon and for moving the spot across the surface along a scan line or predetermined length. The scanner also includes a post-facet lens system with first and second elements configured to compensate for field curvature and wobble without compensating for scanner non-linearity. They are composed of plastic, the surfaces of the elements having curvature in both the scan plane and the cross-scan plane as well as less magnification than existing post-facet lens systems.
