Have you looked at the sample code that came with the OPOS SDK? I use the same receipt printer with the cash drawer connected to the receipt printer. This has worked beautifully for me with my VFP apps. My sample code:

WITH This.oleDrawer
      lnRetval = .open(lcOposName)
      IF lnRetval=0
           lnRetval = .claim(1000)
      ENDIF
      IF lnRetval=0
           .DeviceEnabled = .T.
           llRetval = .DrawerOpened
           IF  .NOT. llRetval
                lnRetval = .OpenDrawer
           ENDIF
           .DeviceEnabled = .F.
      ENDIF
      .close(lcOposName)
ENDWITH

lcOposName is usually "Unit1". I have a registry class that retrieves this name from the windows registry.
