I completely forgot that thing existed.  Can't remember ever using it, though.

I would imagine that if you want to use it for i/o, you should use its methods and no others.

I just whipped up this quick test and it seemed to do what I expected:

conio.init();
conio.clrscr();
conio.textcolor = 14;
conio.cputs('hihi');
conio.getch();
