I've been testing a Hor. enlarger "prototype", solution I found to keep paper flat and in place is the adhesive way.
So my suggestion is place a flat surface on the wall (Thick Glass or Melamine White Panel, checking it is flat enough) and then spray on it 3M ReMount spray, paper will remain perpectly flat as if it was a vacuum powered easel, but more convenient !
Single problem is that you will need to spray some more ReMount glue after several days, after some weeks you may want to clean out all glue with "3M™ Adhesive Remover" for example and to spay new 3M ReMount.
If you use this way, remember protecting the sprayed glue by plastic sheet adhered on it when not using it (a RC paper used and discarted is perfect), in this way the glue will last more and no dust will adhere on it.
This glue looks like that in PostIt notes, it does not leave residues in the other object, so your photo paper won't take any glue. I feel like a 3M seller
but you can use any other brand, of course.
Don't spray too much glue, just the amount that it keeps your paper flat and in place, this is much less than it looks.
I've played with that while trying to use a CAMBO 810 as an Hor. enlarger, placing in the back a Graflarger like DIY gadget. Also I use it to get paper flat under a MF enlarger. I'm happy with that way.
Regards.
