Abstract

According to one embodiment, a scanning system includes a first light source configured to emit a first light beam, a second light source configured to emit a second light beam, a first sensor configured to detect a position of at least one of the first and the second light beams with respect to a photoconductor, a second sensor configured to provide positional information of a transfer system, and a control system coupled with the first sensor and the second sensor and configured to select one of the first light source and the second light source to form a first scan line of a latent image on the photoconductor responsive to output of the first sensor and the second sensor.
