Abstract
A method for preparing a lithographic printing plate comprising: exposing a lithographic printing plate precursor comprising a hydrophilic support, a photosensitive layer containing (A) a sensitizing dye having an absorption maximum in a wavelength range of from 350 to 450 nm represented by the formula (I) or (II) as defined herein, (B) a polymerization initiator, (C) a polymerizable compound and (D) a hydrophobic binder polymer having an acid value of 0.3 meq/g or less and a protective layer provided in this order with a laser beam of from 350 to 450 nm; and rubbing a surface of the exposed lithographic printing plate precursor with a rubbing member in a presence of a developer having pH of from 2 to 10 in an automatic processor equipped with the rubbing member to remove the protective layer and an unexposed area of the photosensitive layer.
