Seamless, sleeve-shaped dry and wet lithographic printing members that can be recycled after use, along with methods for their manufacture and use. The members include a strong, durable, hollow cylinder or sleeve 20 that is attached to the plate mandrel or cylinder jacket 14 of an offset printing press or platemaking apparatus. Surrounding the sleeve is a layer of a material 22, preferably polymeric in nature, which is characterised by efficient, ablative absorption of laser radiation, as well as other layers 24 that facilitate imaging and subsequent printing. <IMAGE> |
