Abstract

A planographic printing plate and a manufacturing method thereof are provided in which a deterioration in quality and performance of the planographic printing plate due to coating defects caused by foreign matter adhering to a support can be prevented. The planographic printing plate has stable quality such as uniform sensitivity with respect to writing by an infrared ray laser or the like and uniform developability. The planographic printing plate includes a support, a primer layer, and a recording layer superposed in that order. In the manufacturing method, a step of forming the primer layer, in which a coating solution for a primer layer is applied onto the support, is carried out at least two times. At this time, before a coating solution for a previous primer layer has completely dried, a coating solution for a subsequent primer layer is applied. This type of application is preferable in terms of coating uniformity and prevention of an increase in coating thickness.
