promotional items
Another question from my translation of a contract for promotional items (pharma company). I am pretty certain these are printed items those this is not specified. Premier de série is in fact defined here:
« Premier de série » : première sortie de production d’un Article Promotionnel, servant de contrôle pour valider la conformité d’une production.
Would "first production output sample" be accurate here? Or is there another standard term? I have presumed it refers to a sample rather than the whole output, is this right?

first production sample
Note that in many cases, 'série' in effect equates to 'mass-production' — though I don't feel there is any need to add 'mass' here, 'production' alone suffices. Likewise, I see now need to add 'output', since after all, there is no opposiiton with 'input'!

: Thsi sounds curiously like a confusion with 'production line' or 'product line'; either way, i don't believe it is an accepted term in this field.
