Anyone ever dabble in printing canvas and stretching it on a frame?

I am attempting it my first time shortly and just started building profiles to print the stuff on my HP.

Any tips or techniques?

Can't wait to try it out!

Hey mods if I posted this in the wrong area, feel free to move it!
 
Printing? No; just painting. Since you're going to stretch it, as opposed to mat and frame, I'd leave a fair size border to make up for what goes around the side and back of the stretcher. 1/4 inch that I use for matting won't cut it.

Definitely, its mirrored 1.5" all the way around as well as another 1" of white extra.
