    Contact printing question

    My thoughts are to buy a 16x20" contact print frame, as recommended by B&S to print 11x14 negs...

    My question is, what paper would you use to contact print to..? Is there a big difference in paper quality.? I will be using 11x14 negs from Ilford HP5

    Since the paper acts as a border will that dictate a special kind of paper..?

    should I stay will the same brand..? any tips on centering my 11x14 neg in the 16x20" contact print frame ?

    I guess it all depends on how I want to present the photos.. How do you guys do it ? glass frames ,glassless??

    regards Steve
