I could not reproduce the problem that you are seeing.
Using Emacs 30.2, I did the following:

  1. Start Emacs using =E2=80=98emacs -Q=E2=80=99
  2. Copied your function definition to the *scratch*
     buffer.
  3. Evaluated the definition using C-x C-e (bound to
     =E2=80=98eval-last-sexp=E2=80=99)
  4. M-x rjnfoo RET
  5. At "foo-string:" prompt,
     a. Type C-h c C to look up the binding of =E2=80=98C=E2=80=99 (capital
        =E2=80=98C=E2=80=99). Result: "C runs the command self-insert-comma=
nd"
     b. Type C RET to enter =E2=80=98C=E2=80=99 in response to the
        "foo-string:" prompt.  The command completes with no
        error.
  6. Edit your function=E2=80=99s definition to add the expression:
       (prin1 foo-string)
  7. Repeat steps 3 and 4, above.
  8. At the "foo-string:" prompt, enter capital C again.
  9. The command completes after printing "C" in the
     *Messages* buffer.

You might try to reproduce the problem that you are seeing
after starting Emacs using =E2=80=98emacs -Q=E2=80=99.
