if you need a white boarder to your print you could cut a black black card frame that could be placed over the printing paper.

But the OP makes no mention of a frame for a white border.

As a schoolboy in the sixties my first prints were made with an inherited wooden contact frame, and family box camera negatives.
I still have the frame.
I often wondered why the back had a hinge across it.
At last all has been revealed.
Thank you o wise ones.
