Nooooooo!

First the 3000B and now this?

Okay, now a non-hypothetical question: what's a good paper I could instead to make negative images and then contact print? Since I've never done my own printing, the paper choices confuse me.

I couldn't find any from the usual suspects - B&H, Adorama, Freestyle. I just went to the Ilford website and I think there's still some stock: http://www.harmanexpress.net/ in 4x5 and 5x7.

I still got the pack (10 sheets - not sure if I took one out) that came with the Harman Titan in my fridge. I am not using it. If anyone wants to have it, I'm happy to give it away.
