File Path:.../bin/br_uncompress.py

Issues
1.
Error while checking the script:
Can't parse /opt/splunk/etc/apps/TA-LoRaWAN_decoders/bin/br_uncompress.py: ParseError: bad input: type=1, value='print', context=(' ', (24, 8))
 
Any suggestions as to what the issue is?

Hi, yep I understand that but I don't understand what the error is telling me:

Error while checking the script:
Can't parse /opt/splunk/etc/apps/TA-LoRaWAN_decoders/bin/br_uncompress.py: ParseError: bad input: type=1, value='print', context=(' ', (25, 8))

def print(self, message, end="\n"):
