CLAIMS
1. A method of producing a printed material, comprising the steps of: allowing a water-based ink to adhere to a surface of a heat sensitive layer of a lithographic printing plale having a surface on which an ink repelling layer and the heat sensitive layer exist; and transferring the adhering water-based ink directly or via a blanket to a printing substrate.
2. The method of producing a printed material according to claim 1, wherein the heat sensitive layer contains a photothermal conversion material.
3. The method of producing a printed material according to claim 1 or 2, wherein the heat sensitive layer contains a novolac resin and an organic complex compound, and the heat sensitive layer contains the novolac resin and the organic complex compound at a mass ratio of 2 to 6.
4. The method of producing a printed material according to any one of claims 1 to 3, wherein the ink repelling layer contains a silicone rubber.
5. The method of producing a printed material according to any one of claims 3 to 4, wherein the ink repelling layer contains an ink repelling liquid, and the content of the ink repelling liquid is from 10% by mass to 50% by mass.
6. The method of producing a printed material according lo claim 5, wherein the ink repelling liquid in the ink repelling layer has a boiling point of 150°C or more at
1 atmospheric pressure.

7. The method of producing a printed material according to claim 5 or 6, wherein the ink repelling liquid is a hydrocarbon-based solvent or a silicone-based liquid.
8. The method of producing a printed material according to any one of claims 1 to 7, further comprising the step of irradiating the lithographic printing piate original having the ink repelling layer and the heat sensitive layer with laser and applying physical stimulations thereto, thereby preparing the lithographic printing plate, prior to the step of allowing the water-based ink to adhere to the surface of the heat sensitive layer of the lithographic printing plate.
9. The method of producing a printed material according to any one of claims 1 to 8, wherein the heat sensitive layer contains an urethane resin.
10. The method of producing a printed material according to claim 9, wherein the heat sensitive layer contains the novolac resin and the urethane resin at a mass ratio of 1 to 5.
11. The method of producing a printed material according to any one of claims 1 to 105 wherein the water-based ink contains a pigment, a water-soluble resin, and a diluent.
12. The method of producing a printed material according fo ciaim 11. wherein the diluent contains a water-soluble acrylic monomer,
13. The method of producing a printed materia! according to any one of claims 1 lo 12, further comprising the step of irradiating the water-based ink transferred to the

printing substrate with an active energy ray after the step of transferring the water-based ink to the printing substrate.
14. A method of producing a printed material, comprising the step of washing a lithographic printing plate or a blanket with washing water after carrying out the steps of the method of producing a printed material according to any one of claims 1 to 13, wherein the washing water contains a surfactant.
