Abstract

Compensation circuitry for a laser printer using a self-resonant scanner wherein a clock generator (VCO) and an address counter operated between start of scan (SOS) and end of scan (EOS) signals are used in the generation of data clock signals. A flip-flop circuit is connected to receive the EOS signal and the output from a higher order bit output of the address counter to provide logic circuitry with an indication of whether the clock generator (VCO) frequency should be raised or lowered. The logic circuitry provides an input to a digital to analog means which is connected to the control input of the clock generator (VCO).
