You specified –h or –H but did not supply a header or header_fmt string.
Width is insufficient
The line is not wide enough to hold the given number of columns with the
given column width; or a column is not wide enough to hold the minimum
amount of data.
POSIX.2, X/Open Portability Guide.
The –c, –H, –p, and –W options are extensions of the POSIX standard.
In a doublebyte environment, remember that column positions are always based on
the width of characters. A doublebyte character may take up two columns of output
(called a thick character), but a singlebyte character will only take up one column of
output (called a thin character). Specify column widths according to the expected
thickness of characters.
For example, with a column width of 10, then ten thin characters or five thick
characters are displayed.

Description
Options
print [–npRrs] [–u[descriptor]] [argument ...]
Calling print without options or with only the – option displays each argument to the
standard output using the same escape conventions as echo. In this case, print
and echo work the same way; see echo.
The options accepted by print increase its utility beyond that of echo.
