Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to an optoelectronic scanning system, in particular for printing devices or similar, having a light barrier (L) made from a light-emitting semiconductor element (SD) with an associated receiving element (FT). The light barrier (L) is balanced by an automatic balancing arrangement via the control currents thereof on the basis of prescribable setting conditions. The automatic balancing arrangement contains a microcomputer system (MS) with an associated input/output unit (EA), the input unit (E) being coupled via a status line (SL) to the receiving element (FT), and the output unit (A) being coupled via a digital-to-analog converter arrangement to the semiconductor element (SD) and/or the receiving element (FT) in such a way that upon calling up an appropriate balancing routine in the microcomputer system (MS) the light barrier (L) is balanced.
