Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Identify and select consumables
  • Required consumables are identified in consultation with appropriate personnel and in accordance with manufacture's and/or job specifications
  • Consumables are selected and confirmed that they correspond with identified needs
       
Element: Use consumables
  • Consumables are prepared and loaded according to occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements and manufacturer's and enterprise procedures and specifications
  • Faulty product is visually identified and removed
  • Incorrect substrate usage is identified and then rectified
       
Element: Monitor consumables storage and levels
  • Stock levels are monitored to enterprise requirements
  • Consumables are recorded and stored according to manufacturer's specifications
  • Appropriate personnel are informed of low stock levels and measures taken to increase levels of stock
       


Evidence Required

List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.

The Evidence Guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the performance criteria, required skills and knowledge, range statement and the Assessment Guidelines for the Training Package.

Overview of assessment

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit

Evidence of the ability to:

indentify, use and store consumables used in a digital workflow

monitor stock levels of consumables

find and use information relevant to the task from a variety of information sources.

Context of and specific resources for assessment

Assessment must ensure:

that conditions are typical ambient conditions found in the workplace

access to relevant facilities, equipment and materials used for colour management production

use of culturally appropriate processes and techniques appropriate to the language and literacy capacity of learners and the work being performed

Method of assessment

A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge. The following examples are appropriate for this unit:

direct questioning combined with review of portfolios of evidence

third party workplace reports of on-the-job performance by the candidate

practical demonstration by the candidate in using and monitoring digital media consumables.

Guidance information for assessment

Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector, workplace and job role is recommended, for example:

ICPPR286A Finish a digital product.

For valid and reliable assessment of this unit, evidence should be gathered over a period of time through a range of methods for assessment to indicate consistent performance.

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

Required skills

OHS in relation to loading consumables safely

communication skills when reporting low stock levels to appropriate personnel

planning and organising activities by providing information about time and material requirements for set-up, production and finishing to ensure efficient operation

teamwork skills when maintaining the production process in association with other workers

mathematical ideas and techniques by calculating consumables needed for a production run

use of technology by using digital printing devices

problem-solving skills by recognising faulty printing and determining whether consumables are the cause

Required knowledge

OHS factors that need to be addressed when using and loading consumables

location of material safety data sheets (MSDS)

location of manuals, safety and other documentation and the information included in these documents that are relevant to digital media consumables

various consumables used in the digital sector

types of consumables used for each printing and/or finishing device

which substrates perform better for a particular printing device

printing faults that can occur due to using the wrong substrate

printing faults that can occur due to poor storage of consumables

various inks and toners used in the digital sector

advantages and disadvantages of the various ink types

The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included.

Consumables may include:

ink

toner

developer

waste toner

fuser oil

substrates

staples

binding wire and combs.

Faulty product may include:

inks that perform poorly that may be due to expiry date

substrates with visual faults, such as:

tears and scratches

moisture damage

tangled and/or bent binding wire.

Appropriate personnel may include:

supervisor

manager

team leader

store personnel.

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
