<p>According to a method of preparing a lithographic printing plate comprising processing a lithographic printing plate precursor having a photosensitive layer containing a hexaarylbiimidazole compound and a protective layer with a developer containing a specific organic solvent and at least any of a surfactant and a water-soluble polymer compound, the occurrence of development scum is prevented and both good developing property and printing durability can be achieved. Further, since it becomes possible to conduct one bath processing with a weak alkaline developer, advantages, for example, simplification of processing steps, consideration for global environment and adaptation for space saving and low running cost can be achieved.</p> |
