Customer Testimonies
Thanks for your quick response with the temporary pass-string. I have completed activities with my test version of the JQP product against an LPAR running Z/OS 1.11, and (as expected) have encountered no problems or issues. I’d like to mention once again how pleased we are with this product, after previously running LRS’s components. This product is solid, always functions, performs EXACTLY what we need it to do for us, and for a reasonable cost. We are very happy we made the switch to your system.

The product is very inexpensive especially when you compare it to VPS which was used before. It only takes about an hour to install, very easy. I was able to create special page formatting to print checks as well as letters that go out which included letterheads.

"JES Queue for Printers, JES Report Broker and VTAM Virtual Printer provided the same feature/function as their replacements at a much reduced cost. Installation was simple and straightforward and was completed across 5 lpars within a 2 week period. They have become 'set it and forget it' products. We now have JQP on 6 lpars and VVP on 7 lpars."
~ Steve Trapp, System Programmer Team Lead, GA and CA
"Irish Dairy board have been users of the MacKinney printing products VVP and JQP since 2004. We use JQP to route mainframe print to TCP/IP network printers, and VVP to route print from CICS transactions to JES spool We had previously used Levi, Ray and Shoup's VPS and DRS. We changed to the MacKinney products when the cost of upgrade of the LRS products for a proposed new mainframe was prohibitive. We chose them because they gave us exactly the functionality we required, at approximately 20% of the cost of LRS. JQP and VVP were installed and just worked. In the past five years we've only had two occasions to call on MacKinney support - both times for configuration issues for new printers. The response was fast and accurate. We've been very satisfied with the products. Our only problem is that we didn't install them earlier."
