Netseps Pricing Plan
Effective 11/1/2006
Basic Separations
You pay a single price per processed separation,
regardless the number of colors in your final separation or the physical size
of the file. This helps you to accurately predict your color separation costs.
NetSeps customers are charged based on 30 Day
Account History. We look back on how many separations you have purchased in the last 30 day period and charge accordingly.
You pay one price per separation, regardless of the number of colors in the
finished file.
• $95.00 USD for the 1st
separation,
• $75.00 USD for the 2nd
through 5th separations,
• $50.00 USD for >5
separations in the past 30 days
As long as you use 5 or more separations in the
previous 30 day period, you will always be paying $50.00 USD per separation.
This rewards regular customers are for their continued business. Ordering on a
regular basis will guarantee either $50.00 or $75.00 per separation, depending
on how many you purchase.
Finished separations are delivered via the Internet
as a completed file in psd format. You also receive a completed pdf Print
Specification Sheet which is readable on any computer with Adobe Acrobat Reader
(free from Adobe.com) The two files
are zipped and uploaded to our servers where you have access to them for
download.
High End Custom Separations
These separations are produced from complex
graphic files usually done in Quark Express or Adobe InDesign. They contain
mixed vector and embedded raster files. They may require complicated edits,
resizing, resampling, scaling, and so on.
When you create your new job, make sure you tell us it is a High End
separation. We will quote you when we open and evaluate the files. There is no
way we can give you an accurate estimate in advance of complete file evaluation.
Make sure all linked files and fonts are included with the primary file. All
elements should be in a folder which has been Zipped or Stuffed. Upload the
compressed folder the same way you normally do.
High End Custom separations include Imageset
Film and ONE round of corrections with new film. The price per color ranges
between $25 USD and $50 USD, depending on complexity, size, and edit time
required for preparation.
Rush Service
Every printer is faced with Rush Jobs. We will
make every effort to accommodate Rush orders when we can. The charge for Rush
Service is 100% of the base Netseps Rate for that job. Rush Service is
available for 48 hr or faster turnaround WHEN we can accommodate you. Since we are a 100% Internet driven
business, we have no way of knowing what our daily backlog of work will be at
any given time. The best advice is
to Call or email in advance of taking the job to determine if Rush Service is
possible.
Search Archive
We archive all work done by Netseps to DVD after
approximately 21 days on the server. If you need a duplicate copy of your work
in the future, we can accommodate your request. The charge for Archive
Retrieval is $50 USD if the original order was placed within the last 24 months
and $75 USD if the order was done more than 24 months prior.
Create Job On Site
Files sent to us on CD, DVD, or other media or
files Emailed require a $25 USD charge to create your job on the Site. We are
spending our time to Upload the details to your
account. This gets the order into the database and allows us to charge your
account.
Edit Time
Edit time to correct damaged files, drop
backgrounds, or repair JPEG damage (when possible,) is $65 USD per hour. We
will always notifiy
you in advance of any work being done for your approval.

(.005mm). Films come prepunched for maximum accuracy and quick alignment to
press carrier sheets. They are imaged on Agfa Select Set drum imagesetters at
2400 dpi. They have dmax density of 4.0 or higher for maximum image quality.

USD per film

USD per film

Shipping
We ship by UPS and FedEx. Normal shipping is
express (overnight.) This typically costs about $45 USD for domestic shipments.
International shipments are considerably more and are subject to an additional
$15 document preparation charge to originate required customs paperwork.
You may request other shipping methods. Please
advise us at the time your order is placed.
Payment Processing
We now use PayPal as our funds clearing agent.
You can establish a free PayPal account linked to your bank account or credit
card, or you can still use any of the major credit cards we support. You DO NOT
need a Pay Pal account to work with us. We use PayPal as our payment processor
because of their incredible security and the fact they have over 100 million
accounts worldwide, more than any other payment processor.
We have made this change because of increasing Internet fraud. In the past we
have stored sensitive personal and financial information on our Secure Servers.
This has worked well and we have NEVER had an instance of the servers being
compromised. With the switch to PayPay, we no longer store any of this
information online where it might be vulnerable to hackers, virus, Trojan horse
programs, or any other illegal means which could possibly compromise your
security and personal information.
During our annual audit and review of our
business practices, we determined PayPal offers higher levels of security and
reliability than our past methods. For this reason, we have moved to PayPal in
an effort to continue offering you the safest, most secure, and best payment
processing option available.
When a job is completed, you will receive an email notification from us. There
will be a link to the PayPal page where you can enter your information and pay
for your file. Upon authorization, you will be directed to a download page to
retrieve your finished file.
Once a file has been paid for, it will remain accessible on the servers for
approximately 21 days. After that time, it will be archived to DVD and will
require an Archive Search Retrieval if you need a duplicate copy of the file.
Only current agents for your company will be
allowed to access archived information. We will never release files to anyone
other than current, active personnel from your firm. This means former
employees or customers cannot contact us for previously done work on your
behalf.
