A generalization like is silly, I've run printf's in autonomous, you simply need the stdio.h present.

It's been my experience that setting the team number to 0 does induce autonomous, but without an OI attached the robot remains disabled, so the motor outputs are blocked, just like regular disabled mode. You're better off connecting the OI and building the dongle, it takes fifteen minutes or so.
