Yet another pricing question: Photographic Wallpaper

I got contacted by a possible future client. He wants to do something with my pictures that i have never have dealt with.
The client is a company that prints calendars, books, posters, etc.
Soon they will have a new product: Wall-paper (not the electronic one, the real one you fill your walls with
). They call it photographic wallpaper.
They want to build a collection of photographic wallpaper and they like to use my pictures for this purpose.
The wallpaper is 18.3" (46.5cm) wide and has heights of 106.3" (270cm), 90.6" (230cm) or 51.2" (130cm) (i guess these are the various roll-lengths).
They'd like to buy my full-resolution digital files, files of pics i already shot.
I have not quoted a price to them yet, since i don't know where to start, basically
The only thing that i told them is that i'm very interested in selling them my pictures but that i will keep my ownership and copyright of these pictures and that they can use them for printing wallpaper only.
I asked them what the 'circulation'/'volume' is of the wallpaper and i asked for some more details of their product.
My question is:
What is a reasonable (ballpark) amount that i can start out with to negotiate a price?
(I am not a professional, i don't earn a living doing photography, but i don't want to undersell either)
Thank you very much.

I can't grasp the notion of time.
When I hear the earth will melt into the sun,
in two billion years,
all I can think is:
"Will that be on a Monday?"
