Sync displaynameprintable attribute to Office 365 as SimpleDisplayName
display name printable is the attribute in Active Directory. How can we sync that to Office 365 as Simple Display Name attribute.

displaynameprintable attribute to AAD is not an attribute in the list that Microsoft provided. check the link below. you may need to create a custom attribute in AD and fill it as needed and synced to AAD to you use it
Attributes synchronized by Microsoft Entra Connect - Microsoft Entra | Microsoft Learn
and here the link how to change the default config with other attribute flows. but do this with caution because it might affect some features in O365

you want to sync the displaynameprintable from AD to the display name attribute in O365 ? If this if your case than you need to change the default config of the connector
