Abstract

Abstract An optical scanning and reflecting system is disclosed for use in a document copying apparatus in which photosensitive paper is exposed by the image of an original document. Light from the original document is reflected by three moving mirrors through a fixed lens and is projected through a slit upon photosensitive paper which is moved in coordination with the movement of the three reflecting mirrors. Two mirrors move in a plane parallel to the original document and the third mirror moves perpendicular thereto.
