For examples for EK-TM4C1294XL, System_printf() is used for output to the Console. The Question is: can printf() be used for output to the Console? If yes, is any special code needed? Thanks.

Yes it can. However, printf is quite costly in terms of overhead to code size and performance. Please carefully read the link below:

For you device, pay very close attention to the section on stack and heap size.

Thanks
