Application
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to prepare line or tone copy, set up a scanner and reproduce the image to meet the technical specifications suitable for print media production.
It applies to individuals who prepare images for scanning and set up the scanner to ensure the image output will meet the technical standards required for the specifications of the job and print media requirements.
Individuals generally work under supervision and within defined procedures.
No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

Performance Evidence
Evidence of the ability to:
- use flat-bed or drum scanner and reproduce THREE examples of line and tone reproductions with supporting comments on set-up criteria and job specifications
- access task-relevant information from a variety of information sources
- determine capability of scanner hardware and software to meet reproduction requirements for print media
- scan images to meet requirements, ensuring they are transferrable across design, pre-press and print sectors.
Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.
Knowledge Evidence
To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:
- describe characteristics of a line or tone image
- describe printing processes and type of substrates used for printing processes
- outline work health and safety (WHS) issues associated with scanner/computer operations
- determine scanner resolution
- explain correct controls for scanner operation
- explain hardware and software requirements for line and tone scanning
- explain scanners and relevant specifications
- outline software requirements and specifications to process and output the image
- list sources of information and other documentation related to safety and scanner operation
- describe how manuals and documentation are correctly stored
- demonstrate correct use of hardware and software
- describe how reproduction requirements are matched to resolution factors and job brief.
Assessment Conditions
Gather evidence to demonstrate consistent performance in conditions that are safe and replicate the workplace. Noise levels, production flow, interruptions and time variances must be typical of those experienced in the Pre-Press field of work and include access to special purpose tools, equipment and industry software packages.
Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
