Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a printing apparatus. The printing apparatus includes a light-emitting device, a reflector, and a light-sensing device. The light-emitting device emits printing light. The reflector is at least partially located in an irradiation region of the printing light, and has a surface reflecting the printing light at different positions to generate reflected light having different exit directions. The light-sensing device includes a light-sensing surface. The light-sensing surface is at least partially located in an irradiation region of the reflected light and senses the reflected light to generate a plurality of continuously-distributed light spots on the light-sensing surface with any adjacent light spots equally spaced apart.

Claim (Index 3):
The apparatus according to  claim 2 , wherein:\n the concave arc surface is symmetrical with respect to a center line; for a pixel row including 2N+1 pixels where N is an positive integer, the concave arc surface reflects the printing light from a position at the center line to form a light spot on the light-sensing surface to act on a (N+1) th  pixel of the pixel row, and light spots corresponding to any two adjacent pixels are uniformly irradiated on the light-sensing surface, using different positions of the concave arc surface for reflection; and for a pixel row including 2N pixels where N is an positive integer, the concave arc surface reflects the printing light from a first position to form a light spot on the light-sensing surface to act on a N th  pixel of the pixel row, and reflects the printing light from a second position to form a light spot on the light-sensing surface to act on a (N+1) th  pixel of the pixel row, wherein a line connecting the first position and the second position along the concave arc surface passes through the center line.
