Suppose we have the following code:
integrate(a*x/a,x);
How can we run this code without any simplification, so that we can get the LaTeX equation without any simplification:
$\int\frac{ax}{a}dx$
?

You can disable the simplifier with:
simp:false;
before evaluating the integral. Don't forget to enable it afterwards.
The manual mentions this as an "extreme option". Presumably a lot of other functionality will be broken while it is off.
Another way (maybe you neeed both?): single quote before the expression. This one prevents evaluation but not simplification. See also: https://maxima.sourceforge.io/docs/manual/maxima_43.html
