In an image scanning system in which a light beam is deflected by an optical deflector to effect the main scanning across a recording medium while the subscanning is effected by mechanically moving the recording medium, the optical components for scanning the light beam across the recording medium and the mechanical components for moving the recording medium in the sub-scanning direction are all mounted on a single frame. The single frame is mounted by way of a vibration insulator on an outer frame structure of the system on which means for feeding the recording medium to the scanning position and for discharging it therefrom is mounted.
An image scanning system for two-dimensionally scanning a light beam across a recording medium comprising a feeding and discharging means for feeding the recording medium to a scanning position and discharging it therefrom, a sub-scanning means for feeding the recording medium in the sub-scanning direction at the scanning position, and a light beam scanning means for scanning the light beam in the main scanning direction at the scanning position, the light beam scanning means including a light source for emitting the light beam and a light deflecting means for deflecting the light beam to sweep the recording medium on the sub-scanning means in the main scanning direction,
