Can anyone describe the differences in quality between the various paper
offerings - as well as brands?

Wow---quite a request.

The choice of paper and ink combos is easily as complex as it is for
wet chemistry printing.

I would start by reading info supplied by some of the big 3rd-party
ink vendors:
MIS (inksupply)
Mediastreet
Lyson
InkJetArt

If you are just starting in printing, sitck with the paper and ink
supplied by your printer manaufacturer. For good prices on genuine
supplies, go to Atlex.

Printer types: S600 and i900d.

IBM = Washed out. Not bad though.
Office Depot = Pretty good.
Canon "Pro" paper = Incredible
Ilford = Incredible
GC = Very cheap, washed out and blotting.
HP = Good to Great, depending on paper type and printer settings.

What printer? Some brands of printers, particularly Epson photos do not
perform well with certain types of paper, such as Kodak.
 
This is for a HP psc 2510. So far I have used HP paper, but when I checked
in Office Depot this weekend, there clearly are many offerings with a wide
range of prices.

Pound for pound the best paper out there is canon paper pro., 88 iso
245g/m and 936 mil. But if you are a cheapskate like me take a look at
the polar gloss from red river. The quality is very good.
