I think that most people print a worksheet (or a range on a worksheet).

So you could populate a cell with that string and then print that cell.

Range("a1").value = "hi there"
range("a1").printout

But this kind of thing would work, too:

Option Explicit
Sub testme01()
Open "LPT1:" For Output As #1
Print #1, "Hi There"
Close #1
End Sub
