John,
I suggest you convert the tapes to AWS, ftp to a PC and zip them there.
You may use GZIP on the mainframe to reduce the network load, which I guess 
was your original intention. If you are not bothered about the network but 
instead about storage costs, go with WinZip and copy the images onto a DVD.
Better yet, convert to HET and send to a PC running MVS3.8 under Hercules 
to be printed.
