Abstract
An electronic printer, comprising a fiber optic bundle having the fiber ends organized in a linear array in a first face and in an area array in a second face, includes a linear array of LEDs or LCSs adapted to image light into the fiber ends in one linear segment of the area face at a time. A rotating mirror is operative to move the light image onto each of the consecutive linear segments on the area face and to provide a digital signal indicative of the position of the light image in each instance. The arrangement provides a low cost, high speed, and small size electronic printer which is easily adapted to high resolution and color printing.
