We moved cuts-print.el to obsolete/ because its features are supported
by the Lisp printer.  So I'd prefer to modify that sentence to mention
the latter, rather than just remove it.

Btw, this sentence and one earlier mentions "custom printing" without
explaining what that means, AFAICT.  It would be good to fix this
while at that.

Thanks.
