Abstract:
1. A light emitting device, in which an image carrier is charged, a latent image is formed on a charged surface of the image carrier, an image is formed by attaching toner onto the latent image, and which is used in an image printing apparatus transferring the image onto other object and forms the latent image by irradiating light onto the charged surface, the light emitting device comprising: an electro-optical substrate that forms an optical image; a focusing lens array in which light used to form the optical image is incident from one end thereof and light used to form an erect image of a corresponding optical image is emitted from the other end thereof; a frame in which the focusing lens array is fixed, a surface side of the frame facing the charged surface; and two position determining members which are formed of resin, each position determining member is disposed on a base portion of a short side of the surface side of the frame, each position determining member comes in contact with a bearing of a supporting body that supports the image carrier, and determines a distance between the focusing lens array and the image carrier by its own height.
