ZOOM LENS COPIER ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An imaging lens system for electrostatic type reproduction machine or copiers utilizing a zoom lens effec- tive to provide, within the magnification limits of the lens, infinitely variable image sizes. A control is provided to pre-set the lens to automatically give, upon actuation, at least one preselected image size, with an override control to enable the lens to be set to provide any image size regardless of pre-set conditions. Further controls are provided for the machine non-image erase mechanism to auto- matically compensate for changes in the image borders brought about by changes in image size due to resetting of the zoom lens. For this purpose, an infinitely variable edge fadeout apparatus is provided incorporating movable shutters to vary the effective size of the edge erasure slots in correspondence with image size together with timing controls for changing the operational timing of the pitch fadeout lamp in response to changes in image size upon resetting of the zoom lens. Further controls enable the critical positioning of the image produced by the zoom lens on the photosensitive member to be adjusted to assure that the image, whatever the size, is optimally positioned on the copy produced with other controls to enable the image, whatever the size produced by the zoom lens, to be physically moved or offset on the copy. -1/2-
