You can't print a multibyte string into a unibyte buffer, this works:
(with-temp-file "/tmp/x.x"
(set-buffer-multibyte nil)
(let ((print-escape-multibyte nil))
(prin1 (unibyte-string ?\x80) (current-buffer))))
or if you want to handle unicode you must choose an encoding:
(with-temp-file "/tmp/x.x"
(set-buffer-multibyte nil)
(let ((print-escape-multibyte nil))
(prin1 (encode-coding-string (string ?\x03bb) 'utf-8)
(current-buffer))))
