Abstract:
An optical scanning device according to an embodiment includes a light source, a MEMS mirror, a MEMS-mirror driving unit, a control unit, and a sensor. The light source radiates a plurality of laser beams that scan a photoconductive drum. The MEMS mirror includes a reflection surface that reflects the plurality of laser beams radiated from the light source. The MEMS-mirror driving unit reciprocatingly moves the MEMS mirror. The sensor supplies a horizontal synchronization signal to the control unit by detecting the laser beam reflected on the reflection surface when the MEMS mirror reaches a predetermined position. After detecting the horizontal synchronization signal supplied from the sensor, the control unit performs the auto power control of the light amount of at least one laser beam among the plurality of laser beams.

Claim (Index 14):
The method according to  claim 11 , further comprising increasing the light amount of at least one laser beam among the plurality of laser beams.
