A mirror driver drives deflection mirror surfaces into a pivoting action
at a frequency belonging to a first drive frequency band in which the
high-frequency side of a first resonance frequency band partially
overlaps the low-frequency side of a second resonance frequency band, so
that the deflection mirror surfaces deflect a light beam. Hence, the
deflection angles of light beams change, while canceling out each other
the changes of the deflection angles of the light beams deflected by the
deflection mirror surfaces owing to changes of resonance characteristics.
Because of this, even when the resonance characteristics change, it is
possible to stabilize the deflection angle of the light beam deflected by
the first deflection mirror surface and further deflected by the second
deflection mirror surface.
