OP's code, for ease of reading, with a note re the missing "my" and strict and warnings added: 
#!C:/perl/bin
use warnings;
use strict;

use Text::CSV; 
my @printerstat; 
$file = 'inputdata.csv';       #  should be <b>my</b> $file
my $csv = Text::CSV->new();
open (FILE, $file) or die "Couldn't open location file: $!"; 

while (<FILE>) { 
    $csv->parse($_); 
    push(@printerstat, $csv->fields); 
    print @printerstat; 
} 

close FILE;

when run against a csv:

this is a field to start with,field2,field3

this produces what I would expect, namely:

this is a field to start with.field2field3

On the supposition that "I want to print each line of the array" means you want each field in the csv printed on a separate line replace
print @printerstat;
with: 
for my $field(@printerstat) {
   print "$field\n";
}
