Kenneth--

SAVOBJ/SAVLIB use an i-series-only format. The only way to transfer a file to a non-System/i machine is to copy it to a tape file. That's assuming you don't have a communication link handy. Anyone for SNADS?

INZTAP with "standard labels." OVRTAPF to your tape drive. I believe that's where you specify tape file name, etc. Then CPYF TOFILE(QTAPE) (or something like that).

If it were an SCS file, I'd use CPYSPLF to a database file, then copy the database file to the tape.

Does the spooled file have overlays or other non-text attributes?

As far as an AFP file is concerned, someone with more experience will have to chime in here.

I need to create a TAPE containing an AFP Spool File that in on an
iSeries *OUTQ, so it can be read and printed to an AFP capable printer
attached to an IBM Mainframe (MVS - Z/OS)...

Can anyone describe how I could do this?
