I don't know if you _can_ do it, and can't test because we don't have
a TS7700. But _if it is possible at all_, then you should be able to:

//MAKENL EXEC PGM=IEBGENER
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD DUMMY
//SYSUT1 DD DUMMY,DCB=(SYS1.MACLIB,DSORG=PS)
//SYSUT2 DD DSN=some.dsn,
//    DISP=(NEW,CATLG),UNIT=ts7700,
//    LABEL=(1,BLP,EXPDT=99000),
//    DCB=(SYS1.MACLIB,DSORG=PS)

Of course, you must have appropriate authority to do BLP processing.
Exactly how is generally shop specific.
