    Abstract: A multiple carriage optical scanning system scans a stationary planar object onto a moving photoreceptive surface at a selected one of a plurality of magnification settings and locates the image at a fixed reference position on the photoreceptive surface regardless of the magnification selected. The scanning system includes a reciprocating lens and light source, the velocities thereof in the scanning direction being controlled by the magnification selected. The lens is supported on a lens carriage which locates the lens along its optical axis in accordance with the magnification selected. The lens carriage is supported for reciprocal motion in a scanning direction on a set of guide rails which are mounted on a second carriage which is movable in a direction perpendicular to the scanning direction and to the optical axis. Combined carriage motion effects the positioning of the lens along three coordinate directions to provide the desired magnification and image placement. The lens carriage is thereafter driven by a rotating drive arm which contacts the lens carriage at a radial position on the drive arm which determines the lens velocity. A set of mirrors are employed along the optical path for conjoint movement with the lens for focusing. Velocity and initial position of the light source is controlled by drive cam selection. A common drive source controls the synchronized motions of the photoreceptive surface, the lens and the light source. A second drive source controls the three dimensional positioning of the lens, positioning of the mirrors and drive cam selection.
