There's a bug in the manual page regarding the escape sequences; it's not "\",
it's "\0".
$ find /dev/bus/usb/001/001 -printf "\\" | od -Ax -tx1 -tc
find: warning: unrecognized escape "\"
000000 5c 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
\ \0 \0 \0 \0 \0 \0 \0 \0 \0
00000a
correct:
$ find /dev/bus/usb/001/001 -printf "\\0" | od -Ax -tx1 -tc
000000 00
\0
000001
Here's a patch:
