ABSTRACT:
A laser beam emitted from the beam emitting unit is deflected for scanning by a reflector rotated by a scanner motor. The deflection scanning beam passes through a meniscus lens device provided close to the reflector, and converges the laser beam on an image-forming surface. The meniscus lens device has an incident surface, a radius of curvature of which is set smaller than that of an output surface thereof, with a convex surface thereof facing the image-forming surface. The laser beam emitting unit, the reflector, the scanner motor, and the meniscus lens device are all integrally built in a housing.
