Abstract: A method for producing an ink-jet recording head having a discharge port configured to discharge ink, a passage-forming member configured to form an ink passage communicating with the discharge port, and a substrate provided with an energy-generating element configured to generate energy utilized for discharging ink includes the steps of forming a pattern for the passage on the substrate, the pattern being composed of a positive photosensitive resin that is insensitive to light having a wavelength of 300 nm to 470 nm, forming a coating resin layer to be the passage-forming member on the substrate having the pattern, exposing the coating resin layer to only light having a wavelength of 300 nm or more to form the discharge port, and removing the pattern to form the passage.
