Hi, We have a product (Spool-off) that is very inexpensive (less than $5k)that will take the information from the JES2 spool and place it into RACF secure datasets that can be sent via FTP or EMAIL to the users, or they can access them on the mainframe directly. These datasets are then managed by the system so that you can store them indefinately.
The advantage is that 90% of the print output isn't ever sent anywhere (except to archive) and if they need it, later, it can be retrieved by them directly. The other advantage is that the output doesn't take up space on the spool and you don't have to worry about users that complain that you didn't keep their output that they "forgot about" on the spool for a few days because you already have an archived version of everything. The output can be sent via FTP or EMAIL using an SSL connection if you want to be really secure. We are designing a whole new interface for the product that will allow for direct web access.
