Frog:
And, of course, make sure all are oriented the same direction.

Why is that if all have registration marks?

Printers that feed film in and out may have a slight error in the feed direction, so you would want that "error" consistent from plate to plate.

lol, I'm out.  I thought he wanted to put 3 with regs on 1 film

Sbrem:
Is it a left front print? There are a few options if you don't have a RIP; we use AccuRIP, outputting through Illustrator, and it has a "nesting" feature for this type of thing. In Illustrator, place your UltraSEPS file, and place your register marks above and below the art. Now reduce your artboard to fit tightly around the image, let's say it comes to 4" wide. When printing, it will put those 4" wide seps next to each other horizontally, so you could get 3 across on a 13 x 19 sheet; we use a 17" roll, so we could do a 4 color that way.
