I don't know if you mean under the enlarger paper negs from positives, or
in camera. Either way, use RC because it lays flat. In camera do not use
glossy RC because you may get bands of reflection, if the camera is a
pinhole. Use paper that has no insignia on the back. And, you can even
peel off the back layer and make your RC neg thinner to expose quicker.
Paper is about ISO 6, I've found. Some are 2. I assume a warmtone paper
would be slower than a coldtone paper in this regard.
