Abstract
A method of storing a liquid color developer and a liquid bleach-fixer in a container made of plastic material having an oxygen permeation coefficient of 0 to 50 m/(m.sup.2 atm day) at temperatures of 20.degree. C. and relative humidity of 60%. The developer contains an aromatic primary amine color developing agent; a hydroxylamine of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are hydrogen or alkyl having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, provided that at least one of R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 is an unsubstituted alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms and that R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 may be combined with each other to form a ring; and an alkaline ingredient for adjusting the pH of the developer to not less than 9.5. The bleach-fixer contains a ferric aminopolycarboxylate, 0 to 1.times.10.sup.-3 mols per liter of an aminopolycarboxylic acid based on the total bleach-fixer, a thiosulfate, and 1.times.10.sup.-3 to 2.times.10.sup.-1 mol per liter of said liquid bleach-fixer of a sulfite.
