    You can, but u will get massive banding issues if its a very graphic piece. Thats cos JPGs only handle 8bit. plus depending what compression you’ve got, your print could look awful. If ur seding files for filmout preferably 10bit LOG (i.e. sourced from scans) or 16 bit LINEAR as a SGI or TIFF. Finally u need to check ur linear files for out of film gamut colours. This occurs mostly in reds and blues. This can be done in a trial and error way by printing and consequencly adjusting ur files or using flames FilmVis or using Truelight or any number of the film print preview tools available
