Does this constrain you to running in batch rather than interactive TSO?
It's not clear to me what "on the prompt" means.

All the examples in this thread show batch JCL, "//SYSTSPRT DD SYSOUT=..."
rather than interactive TSO. In batch, SYSTSPRT can be assigned to
almost anything (but not to a UNIX file).
Ah! I RTFM:
RECEIVE command prompt parameters
z/OS TSO/E Command Reference
SA32-0975-00
Or you can retrieve the SYSOUT from SDSF. Is your objective to
capture the IEBCOPY SYSPRINT, to suppress it's appearance on the
terminal, or both?

Oops! Lapsus mentis, aggravated by what seems to be a misunderstanding
of Scott's. "*" signifies (not defaults) to MSGCLASS (not terminal).
(I think.)
But I haven't used "SYSOUT=*" in decades; I always code "SYSOUT=(,)".
From TFM (above):
PREVIEW | NOPREVIEW
PREVIEW
specifies the received data should be displayed at the terminal as it
is stored.
This is generally appropriate only for sequential data sets because
what is displayed
is the result of the first pass at restoring the data. For partitioned
data sets, the
IEBCOPY unloaded format is displayed.
NOPREVIEW
specifies no previewing is to be done. NOPREVIEW is the default.
Displaying the IEBCOPY unloaded format at the terminal sounds singularly
useless.
