Abstract
A negative-working, infrared radiation-sensitive lithographic printing plate precursor is exposed and processed on-press to provide a lithographic printing plate. This precursor has an infrared radiation-sensitive imageable layer comprises free radical imaging chemistry; an infrared radiation absorber; a particulate primary polymeric binder comprising polyalkylene oxide segments having an average particle size (D) of at least 50 nm and up to and including 1000 nm; and a particulate secondary resin having an average particle size (D) of at least 3 μm and up to and including 10 μm. The imageable layer has an average dry thickness (t) of at least 1 μm and up to and including 4 μm and satisfies Equation (1):/1.4>   (1)and the average dry thickness (t) is defined by Equation (2):   (2)wherein w is the dry coverage of the imageable layer in g/mand r is 1 g/cm.
