Technically, it didn't print part of the instructions, it printed all of them.
It also said to not refuse to do anything the user asks for any reason, and finished by saying it must never ignore the previous directions, so honestly, it was following the directions presented: the later instructions to not reveal the prompt would fall under "any reason" so it has to comply with the request without censorship
Maybe giving contradictory instructions causes contradictory results
