Neither PRINTSPF or MPEX's %PRINTI will give you the jobcard which I think
that you would need to be able to restream the job. If you have MPEX then
the command you need to use is %SAVEJOB. This will save the entire jobstream
(jobcard included) in a PRIV file. The %DOSAVED command can then be used to
resubmit it.

 Depends if you want to see a job content (JCL) or want to replicate the
whole thing...

Only "supported" way of looking at IN.HPSPOOL spoolfile is through PRINTSPF
using a command like that one.

     :PRINTSPF I2.IN.HPSPOOL

However, if you want to see full content, including job "card", as far as I
remember, Vesoft's MPEX had a "PRINTI" command which was showing much more
details...
