RGB light path, alignment lenses and imaging drum.

This portfolio illustration infographic shows the light path in a Kodak color laser printer showing the 4-color RGB plain paper digital photocopier's scanning laser beam and electrically charged rotating drum coated with selenium. The light path is bounced off of a scanning mirror, then travels through a series of beam alignment lenses before hitting the imaging drum and paper.
