Abstract: A method for imaging using a flatbed imaging system includes providing first imaging data to a first imaging source; providing second imaging data to a second imaging source; imaging a first beam from the first imaging source at a first height on a rotating multi-facet spinner; imaging a second beam from the second imaging source at a second height on the rotating multi-facet spinner; distributing the first beam on a first location on a printing plate; and distributing the second beam on a second location on a the printing plate.

Abstract: An imaging head for a flatbed imaging system includes a first rotating multi-facet spinner; a first set of long mirrors directed towards imaging media positioned on a flatbed surface wherein the first set mirrors is at a first distance from said media; a second set of long mirrors directed towards the imaging media wherein the second set of mirrors is at a second distance from said media; a first laser source configured to emit light on the spinner at a first height on the spinner wherein light emitted from the first height on the spinner is directed to the first set of mirrors; and a second laser source configured to emit light on the spinner at a second height on the spinner wherein light emitted from the second height on the spinner is directed to the second set of mirrors.
