The "-#" prompt in psql means you are in line continuation mode.  The \out meta-command should be issued while sitting at an initial prompt "=#".

Being in line-continuation mode means you are typing something else above it that doesn't constitute a full command - and you are still not showing us what that is.  This is the reason I asked for basically a self-contained example.

Being inside emacs buffer has nothing to do with the problem. I do it all the time.  As David points out, continuation in play.
