For reasons that I am unable to account for, you get the desired string in your .tex file if you do <<echo=FALSE>>= string <- "blablabla \\\\\\\\ blablabla on different line" @ \Sexpr{print(string)} resulting in the .tex file as blablabla \\ blablabla on different line It would seem that using <<echo=FALSE,results=tex>> would be a good solution.
