We had not been journalling because of disk space limitations.
Currently we are at about 75% of disk space & it has been much higher.

OS/400 questions - 

can you journal JUST print files?

Is everything that is visible to us on WRKSPLF or WRKOUTQ addressable, such 
as user-name & date the report was generated, so for example

we could delete all ORD500O regardless of user if it is 2 days old
we could delete all shipping updates if it is 7 days old
we could delete safety backups of other stuff based on age & user-id
