Do you actually have an ink cartridge for a citizen cbm 1000 ? Because as far as I know they are all thermal printers that do not use ink cartridges they use heat sensitive paper. Which is why they are used in retail as they don't have to change ink cartridges as well as paper and are much more reliable.

You'll have to provide a lot more information. What POS software are you using? Are there printer settings within that application? Are you using the correct print driver? What operating system are you using? Did the printout work OK before, or has this started from Day One?

check fuse 2 as this would cause the 3 short 1 long flash code. Even if its not blown at least you can trace that part of the crcuit for other blown devices

check the direction of your thermal paper, (i know it seems silly) also check that your element is clean and in working order,

is it serial or parallel?
If it's serial, You can change the com port settings (baud rate) to a higher speed. You would need to change the dips on the printer to read the same Baud rate.
