Abstract
There is provided a multi-beam laser scanning device able to efficiently suppress and prevent density fluctuation and achieve higher image quality. The multi-beam laser scanning device comprises a light emitting source generating a plurality of laser beams, a rotating deflector that has a plurality of deflecting surfaces. On a scanning surface, an interval between a scanning line X generated by deflection of a first deflecting surface of the deflector and a scanning line Y generated by deflection of a second deflecting surface of the deflector and adjacent to the scanning ling X satisfies at least one of the following two equations:Δ'<0.8·Δ′<0.6·
