Patent ID: 7150962

Claim:
A method for forming images, the method comprising the steps of: imagewise exposing a silver halide color photographic photosensitive material having, on a support, photographic constituent layers comprising at least one layer each of a blue-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing a yellow dye forming coupler, a green-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing a magenta dye forming coupler, a red-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing a cyan dye forming coupler, and a non-photosensitive hydrophilic colloid layer; and subjecting the exposed silver halide color photographic photosensitive material to developing processing including a color developing step, a bleach-fix step and a rinsing step; wherein, at least one of the photosensitive silver halide emulsion layers contains a silver halide emulsion with a silver chloride content of 90 mol % or more containing at least one member selected from metal complexes represented by the following general formula (I), the imagewise exposure is conducted by laser scanning exposure and the color developing step is started within 12 seconds after completion of the laser scanning exposure, the color developing step is conducted with a replenishing amount of the color developer at 20 to 60 ml per 1 m 2 of the photosensitive material, and the developing processing is conducted while conveying the silver halide color photographic photosensitive material by conveyor rollers whereby at least one conveyer roller is formed of a styrene-ethylene-butadiene-styrene (SEBS) series elastomer: [IrX 1 n L 1 (6−n) ] m General formula (I) where X 1 represents a halogen ion or a pseudohalogen ion other than cyanate ion; L 1 represents an optional ligand that differs from X 1 ; n represents an integer of 3 to 5; and m represents an integer of −4 to +1.
