New insights / FIX:
-------------------
It seems to be a bug related to the "screen" program (running in lxterminal).
When printing the following in a non-"screen" terminal window then it works :
$ printf "\e[3mitalic\e[0m\n"
Not sure whether the following TERM setting is correct as I once had xterm
installed too, but xterm is not installed anymore:
$ echo $TERM
xterm-256color
In screen this becomes:
$ echo $TERM
screen.xterm-256color

That's interessting.
Which OS, desktop, and version of lxterminal do you use?
Btw, as was suggested, I've opened a project issue entry at github:

i could not reproduce the unexpected behavior - perhaps something (terminfo?)
is over-ridden? - perhaps certain fonts or WMs are incompatible?
can anyone else confirm the unexpected behavior? - those `printf` commands work
as expected on my system, in both C and BASH
$ printf "\e[1mbold\e[0m\n"
$ printf "\e[3mitalic\e[0m\n"
$ printf "\e[3m\e[1mbold italic\e[0m\n"
$ printf "\e[4munderline\e[0m\n"
$ printf "\e[9mstrikethrough\e[0m\n"
$ printf "\e[31mHello World\e[0m\n"
$ printf "\x1B[31mHello World\e[0m\n"
