Abstract
In a scanning optical apparatus including a single lens configured to convert a beam deflected by a polygon mirror into a spot-like image on a to-be-scanned surface, the lens satisfies the conditions: −0.59<β1≦0, −0.46<β2≦0.2, −0.6≦D1<0.43, and −0.17≦D2≦0.16 where β1 indicates an angle [deg] formed in a main scanning plane between a first optical axis and a reference line perpendicular to the to-be-scanned surface, β2 indicates an angle [deg] formed in the main scanning plane between the first optical axis and a second optical axis, D1 indicates an amount of shift [mm] in the main scanning plane, of a point of intersection between the first optical axis and an incident-side lens surface, from the reference line, and D2 indicates an amount of shift [mm] in the main scanning plane, of a point of intersection between the second optical axis and an exit-side lens surface, from the first optical axis.
