Claim:
1. A single-pass imaging system comprising: a two-dimensional light field generator including: an anamorphic optical system positioned to receive said modulated two-dimensional light field from said two-dimensional light field generator, and arranged to concentrate said associated light portions transmitted from said each light emitting element such that the concentrated modulated light portions produce an elongated scan line image, wherein the plurality of light emitting elements are arranged in a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns, wherein all of said light emitting elements in each said column forms an associated pixel group, wherein the anamorphic optical system is arranged to concentrate modulated light portions received from each associated pixel group of said plurality of light emitting elements onto an associated said scan line portion of said elongated scan line image, wherein the anamorphic optical system includes a cross-process optical subsystem and a process-direction optical subsystem, wherein the cross-process optical subsystem includes first and second focusing lenses arranged to project and magnify said modulated light portions only in a cross-process direction, wherein the process-direction optical subsystem includes a third focusing lens arranged to concentrate said modulated light portions on said elongated scan line image parallel to a process direction, and wherein each of the first, second and third focusing lenses comprises one of a cylindrical lens and an acylindrical lens.
