ABSTRACT:
In an imaging apparatus comprising a rotating carrier member arranged to carry a writing element, with the carrier member having an axially extending indicia on the surface thereof, light producing means is provided which is movable with respect to the writing element and is projectable thereon to generate an image. The light producing means is arranged as a linear array in a housing member, with the housing member having an axis disposed substantially perpendicular to the axis of the carrier member. Means is provided for selectively angularly positioning the housing member and the linear array with respect to the carrier member. The positioning means comprises light sensing means disposed on opposite sides of the axis of the housing member in a predetermined relationship with respect to the linear array and facing the carrier member. The light sensing means is arranged to cooperate with the indicia to generate a signal to indicate that the linear array is disposed in a predetermined relationship with respect to the axis of the carrier member as the housing means is selectively rotated about its axis.
