That's a new one on me. What release are you on? We're at V4R2 and I cannot
see the a SPLFASP parameter on the CRTOUTQ command.

The answer is "I don't know". In general trying to manipulate spooled files
by saving and restoring QSPL, or the files in it, leads to problems. I'd
advise against trying unless you have a dedicated test machine that you can
experiment with without danger.
