Abstract
An optical scanning device deflects light for scanning in a main scanning direction and includes a plurality of light sources, a plurality of photodetectors, a plurality of optical element groups, and a polygon mirror. The plurality of light sources emit laser lights. The plurality of photodetectors detect beams formed by the laser lights. The plurality of optical element groups guide the beams to the photodetectors. The polygon mirror deflects the beams for scanning in one direction of the main scanning direction from one end to the other end on the opposite side of the one end. The plurality of optical element groups cross a crossing axis parallel to the main scanning direction, cross a rotation axis of the polygon mirror, and are rotationally symmetrical with respect to an axis of symmetry parallel to the rotation axis of the polygon mirror.
