if you Item is a scalar type then :
with Text_IO;
> generic
>     type Item is private;
>     package Foo is
>        -- ... --
        procedure Print(Value : Item) is
>            -- ... --
            Text_IO.Put( Value'Image );
>            -- ... --
>        end Print;
>     end Foo;

if you Item is only integer type then :
with Ada.Text_IO.Integer_IO;
> generic
type Item is range <>; -- must be
>     package Foo is
>        -- ... --
package Item_IO is new Ada.Text_IO.Integer_IO(Item); -- instantiation
use Item_IO;
       procedure Print(Value : Item) is -- must be
>            -- ... --
            Put( Value ); -- must be
>            -- ... --
>        end Print;
>     end Foo;
