Abstract

Abstract Disclosed is a method for making a complex layer type lithographic printing plate by forming a toner image on a printing original plate having organic electrophotographic photosensitive layer by electrophotographic process and treating non-image area other than the toner image area with an etching solution mainly composed of an alcohol solvent and/or an alkali solvent, said photosensitive layer being a complex layer type photosensitive layer which comprises a charge carrier generating layer comprising a charge carrier generating substance and a binder mainly composed of a polyamide resin soluble in alcohol solvent and a high molecular substance having compatibility with said resin and having a group soluble in alcohol solvent and/or alkali solvent and a charge carrier transport layer containing a high molecular substance having a group soluble in an etching solution mainly composed of alcohol solvent and/or alkali solvent and thereafter treating non-image area other than the toner image area with the etching solution.
