Hi Klaus,

do you want to print out the mdr file or do you want to print out the 
address assignment?
If you just want to have a printout in which admin boundaries an element 
lies you can use the mkgmap logger. Add the line
uk.me.parabola.mkgmap.reader.osm.LocationHook.results.level=FINE
to your logging.properties file. Read 
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Mkgmap/dev#Enabling_Debugging how to 
enable logging.
