Elements and Performance Criteria

ELEMENT	PERFORMANCE CRITERIA
Elements describe the essential outcomes.	Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element.
1. Finger-print press	1.1 Suitable test charts are selected or produced 1.2 Press is optimised to workplace standard, in collaboration with press operator 1.3 Test chart is printed with standard ink densities on any one of a range of stocks
2. Measure press test charts	2.1 Colour measurement devices are calibrated and used to measure printed test charts 2.2 Multiple charts are measured and results recorded 2.3 Software is used to average multiple measurements
3. Create and use custom press profiles	3.1 Appropriate reference file is selected to match printed chart 3.2 Profiling software is used to create an output press profile from the averaged measurement file and profile is tested and edited if required 3.3 Profile is inserted into colour workflow
4. Create and use digital device profiles	4.1 Suitable test charts are selected 4.2 Device is calibrated and test chart is output or digitised 4.3 Test chart is measured using a colour measurement device 4.4 Appropriate reference file is selected to match test chart 4.5 Software is used to create a profile 4.6 Device profile is inserted into the colour workflow
5. Maintain custom colour management workflow	5.1 Printing conditions are monitored and recorded to ensure adherence to workplace standard 5.2 Digital devices are regularly calibrated
