Test program calls puts(), creates spool file here, but not on customer box

Given this test program:

H DFTACTGRP(*NO)
H BNDDIR('QC2LE')
D PUTS PR 10I 0 EXTPROC('puts')
D STRING * VALUE OPTIONS(*STRING)
C CALLP PUTS('This is a test' + x'0d25')
C SETON LR

If I compile it here, on our box, and submit it as a batch job on our box, I get a spool file.

If I do the same on a customer box, I either don't get a spool file, or I get one that immediately gets printed (even though I can't see any reason why it should).

The batch job's OUTQ is set to an output queue that is *not* connected to any running printer.

I'm in the process of finding out whether or not my spool files are getting sent to somebody's printer.
