Abstract

A color calibration device for a laser scanning apparatus includes a compensation unit configured to electronically compensate for positional errors of the three-color laser source. The compensation unit includes an emitted light detector configured to measure a power of an emitted light beam. A calibration unit coupled to the emitted light detector has a controller configured to generate a quantity correction value for the three-color laser source. A laser source control element is configured to generate a control quantity for the three-color laser source, based on the quantity correction value. A dominant color detector is configured to detect any dominant color in the light beam being projected and actuate the controller for the dominant color.
