Method for preparation of lithographic printing plate

摘要

A method for preparation of a lithographic printing plate including: exposing with a laser a lithographic printing plate precursor including a support and a photosensitive layer containing a sensitizing dye, a radical polymerization initiator, a radical polymerizable compound and a binder polymer; and subjecting the exposed lithographic printing plate precursor to development processing with a developer having pH of from 3 to 9 to remove an unexposed area of the photosensitive layer, wherein the binder polymer is a polymer having an acid value of from 10 to 250 mg-KOH/g and the developer contains a compound represented by one of the formulae <1>, <2> and <3> defined herein.
