Abstract
An automatic processor for processing a silver halide photographic light-sensitive material with a processing solution, includes a processing tank containing the processing solution for processing the material; and a circulating path for circulating the processing solution, which communicates with the processing tank. The processor further includes a supplier for supplying a solid composition to the processing tank or the path, in which the expression of V.sub.w .ltoreq.Vf is satisfied, where V.sub.w represents an amount (liter) of the processing solution in a minute in the processing tank and Vf represents an amount (liter) of the processing solution in the path.
