PURPOSE:To prevent propagation of bacteria in a bath, without damaging preservable property of an image after processing by processing a photosensitive material contg. a specific coupler with a washing water and/or stabilizer which are reduced Ca and Mg contents. CONSTITUTION:The titled material comprises a two equivalent yellow coupler shown by formula I and a two equivalent cyan coupler shown by formula II. The titled material is processed with the washing water and/or the stabilizer in which the concentrations of Ca and Mg compds. are reduced to <=5mg/l expressed in terms of Ca and Mg, respectively. In said processing, the replenishing amount of the washing water and/or the stabilizer is controlled to 1-50 times of the amount carried from a fore bath. In the formula, R1 is N-phenyl carbamoyl group, R2 is 4-20C tertiary alkyl or phenyl group, R3 is an aliphatic or an aromatic group, etc., R4 is H or more than 1C an aliphatic group, etc., Z is H or halogen atom etc., X1 and X2 are each a group capable of releasing by reacting with an oxidant of a developing agent except hydrogen atom. |
