Publishing question: how much is appropriate?

Publishing question — I’ve had a request from a small literary press to reprint an essay of mine; they asked what my licensing fee would be, and notes that “We are hoping that the lifetime print run of the collection will be 4000 copies in total.”

I haven’t done this kind of thing before — any idea how much is appropriate? (I’d particularly like to hear from writers who have done this kind of thing, or small press editors / publishers.) Thanks!
