Performance Evidence

Evidence of the ability to:

correctly produce THREE jobs with final product on varied media, including both print and digital platforms

apply colour management system maintenance procedures according to enterprise procedures and job specifications.

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:

identify work health and safety (WHS) issues related to managing colour for digital production

define densitometric and spectrophotometric measurement

define International Colour Consortium (ICC) profiles, their use and the effects they can have on output

explain device independent colour and profile connection spaces

outline use of colour space conversions and rendering intents

describe factors that influence selection of highlight and shadow aim points

explain grey balance requirements in relation to colour correction and the process of determining grey balance requirements

describe ink/toner light errors – ‘ideal’ versus ‘actual’ inks/toners

explain viewing light conditions and metamerism

outline factors determining requirements for colour correction and how different stocks affect colour

describe effects different inks have on colour reproduction for proofing and final production, and how dot gain affects colour

identify type of press and what printing process is being used for final output

describe solutions to common problems of colour management

describe effects of using the wrong profile on output

identify sources of information on colour management.

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 printing field of work and include access to special purpose tools, equipment and materials.

Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational education and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.
