No harm though I suppose.

My preference would be along these lines but without the trick regarding
the common suffix on both words, i.e.

printf("%-16s: %s\n", "CDP Status",
       info->cdp_enabled ? "Enabled" : "Disabled");

As well as avoiding splitting the words this avoids duplicating the %-16s
and "CDP Status" compared with the original, which IMHO is the important
thing.
