Electrophotographic zinc oxide-resin binder lithographic printing plate precursor

An electrophotographic lithographic printing plate precursor obtained from an electrophotographic photoreceptor comprising a conductive support having provided thereon at least one photoconductive layer containing photoconductive zinc oxide and a resin binder, said printing plate precursor being capable of producing a lithographic printing plate by a process involving forming an electrophotographic image on said photoconductive layer followed by subjecting said photoconductive layer to an oil-desensitization treatment, wherein said resin binder comprises a resin containing at least one functional group represented by formula

• --COO--L
• capable of forming a carboxyl group upon decomposition by an oil-desensitization treatment wherein L is selected from the group consisting of ##STR7## and --NH--OH, wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are each selected from the group consisting of a hydrogen atom or an aliphatic group;
• X represents an aromatic group;
• Z is selected from the group consisting of a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a trihalomethyl group, an alkyl group, --CN, --NO.sub.2, --SO.sub.2 R.sub.6, wherein R.sub.6 represents a hydrocarbon group, --COOR.sub.7, wherein R.sub.7 represents a hydrocarbon group, and --O--R.sub.8, wherein R.sub.8 represents a hydrocarbon group;
• n and m are each 0, 1, or 2, provided that when both n and m represent 0, z is not hydrogen;
• R.sub.3, R.sub.4, and R.sub.5 are each selected from the group consisting of a hydrocarbon group and --O--R.sub.9, wherein R.sub.9 represents a hydrocarbon group;
• M is Si,Sn, or Ti;
• and Q.sub.1 and Q.sub.2 each represent a hydrocarbon group.
