Printing out a number in assembly language?

Question

Have you tried int 21h service 2? DL is the character to print.

mov dl,'A' ; print 'A'
mov ah,2
int 21h

To print the integer value, you'll have to write a loop to decompose the integer to individual characters. If you're okay with printing the value in hex, this is pretty trivial.

If you can't rely on DOS services, you might also be able to use the BIOS int 10h with AL set to 0Eh or 0Ah.

Assembly language has no direct means of printing anything. Your assembler may or may not come with a library that supplies such a facility, otherwise you have to write it yourself, and it will be quite a complex function. You also have to decide where to print things - in a window, on the printer? In assembler, none of this is done for you.

DOS Print 32 bit value stored in EAX with hexadecimal output (for 80386+)
(on 64 bit OS use DOSBOX)

.code
    mov ax,@DATA        ; get the address of the data segment
    mov ds,ax           ; store the address in the data segment register
;-----------------------
    mov eax,0FFFFFFFFh  ; 32 bit value (0 - FFFFFFFF) for example
;-----------------------
; convert the value in EAX to hexadecimal ASCIIs
;-----------------------
    mov di,OFFSET ASCII ; get the offset address
    mov cl,8            ; number of ASCII
P1: rol eax,4           ; 1 Nibble (start with highest byte)
    mov bl,al
    and bl,0Fh          ; only low-Nibble
    add bl,30h          ; convert to ASCII
    cmp bl,39h          ; above 9?
    jna short P2
    add bl,7            ; "A" to "F"
P2: mov [di],bl         ; store ASCII in buffer
    inc di              ; increase target address
    dec cl              ; decrease loop counter
    jnz P1              ; jump if cl is not equal 0 (zeroflag is not set)
;-----------------------
; Print string
;-----------------------
    mov dx,OFFSET ASCII ; DOS 1+ WRITE STRING TO STANDARD OUTPUT
    mov ah,9            ; DS:DX->'$'-terminated string
    int 21h             ; maybe redirected under DOS 2+ for output to file
                        ; (using pipe character">") or output to printer

  ; terminate program...

.data
ASCII DB "00000000",0Dh,0Ah,"$" ; buffer for ASCII string

Alternative string output directly to the videobuffer without using software interupts:

;-----------------------
; Print string
;-----------------------
    mov ax,0B800h       ; segment address of textmode video buffer
    mov es,ax           ; store address in extra segment register

    mov si,OFFSET ASCII ; get the offset address of the string

; using a fixed target address for example (screen page 0)
; Position`on screen = (Line_number*80*2) + (Row_number*2)

    mov di,(10*80*2)+(10*2)
    mov cl,8            ; number of ASCII
    cld                 ; clear direction flag

P3: lodsb  ; get the ASCII from the address in DS:SI + increase si
    stosb  ; write ASCII directly to the screen using ES:DI + increase di
    inc di ; step over attribut byte
    dec cl ; decrease counter
    jnz P3 ; repeat (print only 8 ASCII, not used bytes are: 0Dh,0Ah,"$")

; Hint: this directly output to the screen do not touch or move the cursor
; but feel free to modify..
