recommends using the ^D107 command instead of the ^D106.

the overall size of the file according to this format:

Kiosk Cutter Mode.
0
Disable Kiosk Cutter Mode.
1
Enable Kiosk Cutter Mode.
2
Turn on partial Kiosk Cutter Mode.
This is a special mode that can be used to avoid media "curling" when left
under the drive roller for extended time. The printer feeds the media forward a
programmable amount (ref ^D112) so that the leading edge of the media is out
from under the drive roller. This helps prevent the leading edge of the ticket
being curled up by the drive roller, which leads to paper jams going into the
cutter.
These are the steps the printer takes when a ticket is to be printed:
This mode is useful in Kiosk applications where the media may normally rest
under the driver roller for long times and become curled.
12-12
1) ticket media is retracted from the "Idle" position into the
printer,
2) ticket is printed,
3) ticket is advanced to the cutter & cut
