Abstract

A continuous motion imaging system having a focusing mechanism for linescan imaging. Carriage apparatus connected to a continuous motion device moves a platen which holds the imaging media. A flexure connection between the carriage and the platen, coupled with a precise rail and bearing structure, provides for precision focus at the linescan position over the axis between the bearings.
