message: OK - It seems as if there is the MI-solution - and also of cause the 
not-release-independency-guaranteed method:
  WRKJOB OUTPUT(*PRINT) OPTION(*PGMSTK) 
and then process the spoolfile.

But to introduce a new sub-thread and to promote an much
underused facility:

As I understand the need to know the library is to put up
a library-list for using a specific application package or
a specific utility. But how do you start this app/utility?
If you use a command why not use the IBM-intended way to solve
this: 'Product lib'? If you do NOT use a command, then why not 
write one.

The default for CRTCMD is 'Product library PRDLIB(*NOCHG)' but
you can give a libraryname on both CRTCMD and CHGCMD.
It works like this:
When the command is evoked the library is put into the *LIBL
between the system- and the (current lib +) user-part.
If your application/utility-command in turn calls another command 
with another PRDLIB, then the previous product-library is replaced
by the new productlib but returned back as soon as the 'another 
command' is finished. Magic? Well, it's simple and it works.
