Is that really true? When you assign catcodes (catcode tables) to the print functions, TeX's behavior is different from scantokens. I have never used scantokens, so I am not 100% sure. Take for example: tex.print(-2, "\\def\\foo{abc}") will not define \foo. While you have referenced the section with the print commands, I think that the description is misleading.
