Thank you Peter and Alan for your response.

Converting "data" to bytes worked, of course. Now I have to, I think, do 
the opposite to the received data.

while 1:
     buf = s.recv(2048)
     if not len(buf):
         break
     print("Received: %s" % buf)

This prints the correct result like this:

b'ABC\DEF\ETC\n' n/

Instead of:

ABC
DEF
ETC

I tried str.decode(buf) but doesn't seem to be the answer.
