This will work for printing a file from a PC via FTP:

ftp as400
Name (as400:klemscot): klemscot
331 Enter password.
Password:
230 KLEMSCOT logged on.
ftp> cd qsys
250 Current library changed to QSYS.
ftp> ascii
200 Representation type is ASCII nonprint.
ftp> put myfile.txt qsysprt
local: myfile.txt remote: qsysprt
200 PORT subcommand request successful.
150 Sending file to member QSYSPRT in library QSYS.
250 File transfer completed successfully.
4240 bytes sent in 0.49 seconds (8.49 KB/s)
ftp> quit
221 QUIT subcommand received.

I just tried it, and it worked for me :)
