NJE is by far the best solution, but since they are reluctant to implement it there isn't much you can do about it. There is a product that the company I work for sells, called SyzSpool which actively manages the JES spool and allows you to manage the output by sending it files that are able to be viewed, FTP'ed, Emailed, etc. and is very inexpensive. There are some other vendors as well that make similar products, but I think ours has the best features for the absolute lowest cost (of course).
