Single weight silver paper is what the 70 year old client needs to slide
into the film holder to make exposures on.

The poster was just running it by the group to see if it's still available
somewhere.

  SINGLE WEIGHT is silver photo paper terminology...

  I've not seen it used with inkjet paper.

  However, the main point of single-weight used to be cheapness (for
  press releases and other cheap distribution), so perhaps Costco's
  Kirkland will serve your purpose.

  In addition to being about half the price of other glossy papers, it's
  far better than most. Unfortunately it's only available
  in letter size (would be nice in 8X10 and 5X7)...between "single
  weight" and "double weight"....
