"printf" is not a C command, it is a routine like any other,  
contained in a library, described in header file(s).

printf() is usually a very large consumer of CPU resources as it must  
include a runtime interpreter to read the format string, then it must  
include binary to ASCII converters for all supported output formats  
whether you use them or not.

In general only very large projects, students or other novices, can  
afford the cost of printf() in an embedded environment.

What most of us do is write routines that do just what we want and  
nothing else. Maybe a putchar() to write individual bytes out the  
serial port. Then puts() to repeatedly call putchar() writing each  
character of a string. Then i8puts() to convert an 8 bit integer and  
write to the serial port in ASCII, and/or u8puts(), or u16puts(), and/ 
or i16puts(), ... And often I add crlf() for line endings.

void crlf(void)
{
	putchar(0x0d) ;
	putchar(0x0a) ;
}

and use something like this:

	puts("The answer is ");
	i16puts(sum) ;
	crlf();

rather than

	printf("The answer is %i\n", sum);
