Do you mean something like:
OVRPRTF FILE(QPRINT) OUTQ(QUSRSYS/BALEOUT)
where BALEOUT is my personal outq.
Not sure if it's possible to change the owner of the spool file to you. OVRPRTF has a SPLFOWN parameter, but you can't assign your own personal profile to it. If you are trying to keep the user running the job from viewing the spool file, you may be able to do that via authorities on the outq you override to (per above).

Subject: Question about redirecting spooled output
EXTERNAL: This email originated from outside of the organization. Do not click on any links or open any attachments unless you trust the sender and know the content is safe.
I have an RPG program that generates spooled output. The F-spec looks like
FQPRINT O F 132 PRINTER
The job in which this runs is under an entirely different user profile, and the spool file goes to QUSRSYS/PRT01.
On this particular system, QUSRSYS/PRT01 gets purged on a daily basis.
I'm pretty sure this can be sent to another queue with an OVRPRTF, although I'm not entirely sure how (or what queue).
But is there also an easy way to have it spooled to me, rather than to the user profile under which the job runs?
