Hi Donald.. I prefer cold press for most images, 140lb, natural white  
for BW printing. But use hot press, and use bright white on occasion,  
just depends on the image. For inkjet transfers and other stuff I use  
300lb. I haven't used Rough. I buy the large 22x30 sheets and cut it  
down. If you like the deckle edges, tape them gently and they run  
thru the printer fine.

Best,
Carolyn
