Handling Returns: When the filter receives returns from the serial

I feel that I miss something. Shouldn't data from devices connected to
the serial port be sent to the server (the application running on the
server) not to the terminal application that just displays text?
The PuTTY application has been evaluated to meet consultation needs but does
not fulfill the requirements related to sales, especially concerning access to
the serial printer.
Terminals details include the use:
Coonection by key type: ed25519 with passphrase
The backspace key: Control-? (127)
The function keys and keypad: Xterm 216+
"Xterm 216" is unclear for me.
If there was no requirement for passthrough printing then would putty
have some features unavailable e.g. in the following case?
xterm -e ssh example.com
...or with any of libvte-based terminal applications. Would it be enough
to run ssh in a VT (TERM=linux)?
