Sounds like you might have a datastream compression product that might have
been upgraded during your CICS upgrade, but a configuration option to
suppress compression for printer datastreams might not have been enabled
during the upgrade.  CICS TS itself does not treat outgoing datastreams any
differently than CICS 4.1 did.
