      The paper presents a general description of the BSO system implementing centralized output functions within a nonhomogeneous computer complex. The system purpose, main capabilities, functional structures, and operation logic are examined. The background for creationg the system is elucidated. New possibilities, provided by the BSO, are discussed. The system design has taken into acount some disadvantages of earlier local output subsystems. Some new capabilities were also provided including failed output repeatability during several hours after an output process has been completed; detailed system-status information for the operator; simplicity of system function extensions (maintainance of new machine types and new classes of output files). The BSO operation showed that it successfully performs the functions assigned.
