ABSTRACT:
An optical scanning apparatus for plane surfaces (13) having a laser light source (20), a light deflecting means (16) illuminated by the laser beam, a telecentric image forming element (15) and a light receiving means. Parallel to the scanning line (11) generated by the light deflecting means (16) and the telecentric image forming element (15) there is arranged, at the angle of regular reflection, an image forming retroreflector (12; 38,39) which forms an image of the light bead running along the scanning line (11) on itself.
