I agree, but...

NJE support is built in to z/OS. SCP isn't, and the ssh port for USS is
pretty precarious. SSH/SCP aren't supported at all on VM or VSE (w/o 3rd
party tools). FTP or NJE are what you have if you have to play nice with
the rest of the IBM family. .

SCP also isn't integrated at all into spooling and output management.
I've been toying with the idea of writing a IPP server/client for CMS
and friends -- it wouldn't be too hard to expand that to support file
transfer as well. IPP supports a "file:" class.

I suppose that would be a nice enhancement request for RSCS: IPP
support. Given that, most of the drawbacks of printing from the various
IBM operating systems to distributed printers would just go away (and
we'd regain a lot of nice function that LPR just doesn't support).
