Abstract

See full text

A method for manufacturing optical scanning systems by which plural optical scanning systems with different effective scanning widths can be manufactured by changing a polygon mirror alone is provided. The method includes the steps of designing a first scanning optical system using a first polygon mirror corresponding to a first value of effective scanning width; designing a second scanning optical system provided with a second polygon mirror corresponding to a second value of effective scanning width, the second value being smaller than the first value, wherein a reference point of deflection is located at the position of the reference point of deflection of the first scanning optical system; and adjusting a size and a position of the scanning lens so as to adjust a lateral magnification in a cross section in the sub-scanning direction of the imaging optical system.
