Just to throw another possibility in there,
don’t know if it will work for your application—you might try
drying between pellon/hollytex and felts (printer’s felts)—this will
maintain a moderately planar paper without making it too flat and without pressing
wrinkles into creases. They’re just a little more gentle than blotters.
Adjust the weight on top to your liking.

Thanks for
the additional suggestions. Will the paste leave a residue on the back of
the paper (Gampi) after I remove it? Also, regarding detaching the
paper before it's totally dry (to save more three dimensionality in
the print), I find that seems to be when it wrinkles up the most; when I
dry the print in blotters and then take it out when it's almost dry,
it curls right up, much more so than my other method which is to try to prints
on screens with little stones weighing down the edges.
'Good thing
we enjoy the challenges of the complications, right?
