Italian term

costo di avviamento

Italian to English Tech/Engineering Photography/Imaging (& Graphic Arts) printing (silk screen printing, tampography...)
printing charges

"Costo di avviamento (per impianto già precedentemente realizzato) € 15,00
Costo di avviamento con adattamento dell'impianto € 30,00"

This crops up on several Italian printing services sites but I haven't been able to find an English equivalent.

set-up cost

È il costo dell'avviamento di stampa, fino alla realizzazione della cd "prima copia buona"

Hence, the ***set-up cost*** is cheaper so the price per unit is less in low volume print jobs

The initial ***set up cost*** is £100 (to cover printing plates etc); After set up, the cost of printing is £100 per thousand - minimum £100

Attenta anche a "impianto": non è nel senso del macchinario/installazione ma nel senso di ciò che serve per poter stampare. Nel "print-to-plate si riferisce direttamnte alle "printing plates" (lastre di stampa) ma potrebbe anche riferirsi alle pellicole di prestampa (prepress) di cui però non ricordo il nome (e sto sempre parlando di stampa offset) - se invece parliamo di serigrafia, l'impianto dovrebbe essere il telaio (dico "dovrebbe" perchè è fuori dal mio settore di specializzazione)

neutral justdone : Hi Maria! Are you sure that Oxford Paravia is not referring to "costi di avviamento" for a new business/company/printing machine?
