Abstract

Rapid growth in internal drum image recording systems is fueling the resurgence of monofacet laser beam deflectors for high-resolution imaging applications. This paper reviews the image performance criteria required of laser beam scanning systems used for high-resolution graphic arts imaging applications and scanning system limitations that have previously hindered systems from achieving these imaging criteria. Also reviewed are previous monofacet deflector configurations and a new monofacet deflector that can be used with either laser or broadband light sources and is well-suited for both flat-field and internal drum imaging systems.
