Hi neeldesai1992,
You can print out any result using the table command:
you can list the full _raw log ( | table _time _raw ) or selected fields ( | table _time field1 field2 fieldn ).

eval is a command to elaborate field values.

If you are looking to print out multiple static values under different columns in the output, use the below query:

| stats count | eval Name="my name", Nickname="anything", Text="This is my custom text" | fields - count

 

Result looks like this:

 This can be of use when u want to display the text not available in the fields. Hope this helps.

What do you mean by 'print out'? You can always display field values by doing something like this index=xyz sourcetype=abc | table fieldA fieldB fieldC
But I am not sure I understand your question.
