That's probably running your shell's builtin printf, rather than the one
from coreutils.
Try:
env printf --help
or
/bin/printf --help
and to see the difference, try:
type p
steps to reproduce
run `printf --help`
actual output
(nothing)
expected output
the help message
comment:
I checked it on ubuntu and on arch, both don't print the help. I checked
the source package on ubuntu and there is code for that in printf.c
