Abstract
Abstract A rotational scanning member for use in a laser scanning apparatus, wherein a laser beam generated from a light source is reflected by the rotational scanning member and scanned onto an object surface, said rotational scanning member having one or more effective surfaces capable of reflecting the laser beam onto said object surface. The scanning member has one or more ineffective surfaces having a circular shape incapable of causing the laser beam to reach said object surface.
