Support for CPC printers is abysmal in all emulators.
The only emulators that at least do some print rendering emulation are JavaCPC and Caprice Forever.

= Rewind feature =
For debugging, going back to the previous instruction is easily implemented. The emulator has to store the time when the previous instruction was executed so that he can go back to that instruction. In the same way, emulators can provide access to the previous HBL, IRQ, VBL, etc.
