So I just tested that in Maya2016 and it seemed to work fine. Remember that anything printed in a userSetup.py will most likely end up in the output window (which is minimized by default in 2016), and not in the script editor window once Maya is done loading. This is because userSetup.py is run before the various GUI elements have actually been spun up and initialized.
Just in case, double check that the env variable MAYA_SKIP_USERSETUP_PY isn't set, and obviously that your userSetup.py is on the PYTHONPATH.
