An object of the present invention is to provide a lithographic printing plate precursor which is less apt to suffer from contamination by ablation in forming an image and having an excellent printing performance through image formation. A lithographic printing plate precursor comprises a base material (I), a photosensitive layer (II) containing a light/heat conversion agent on the base material (I), and a layer (III) covering the photosensitive layer (II), wherein the layer (III) covering the photosensitive layer contains both a water-soluble polymer and a hydrophobic polymer, and contains substantially no light/heat conversion agent is provided. The layer (III) covering the photosensitive layer is preferred to contain the water-soluble polymer and the hydrophobic polymer in a proportion of from 10:90 to 90:10 by mass. |
