What's the difference between print and printf in command?

Because you supplied different arguments 
.
print is probably misleading in this case - those are individual parameters 'p', 'r', etc. You should check the man page for ls to find out what each parameter actually does.

The Kernel Registry Service was unavailable or encountered an error. tunable or value specifies an address that is inaccessible. WARNINGS
Some tunables have signed integer values. For these tunables, the caller must cast the returned value to an type before using it. To find out which tunables have signed integer values, use the tuneinfo2(2) system call, or consult the tunable parameter man pages. AUTHOR
