Abstract
A scanning optical system includes a light source, first and second focusing optical systems, and a light deflector. The second focusing optical system serves to focus a light beam deflected by the light deflector onto a medium to be scanned. The second focusing optical system comprises a single anamorphic lens, a single spherical lens having positive refracting power, and a single lens having a toric surface, successively arranged in order from the light deflector toward the medium.
