There probably aren't any drivers or interface packages available yet, so you probably need to write your own. I would look at OSS Java POS systems that interface to drawers/printers and adapt from there. I would be interested in seeing a working model when you're ready for beta.

It's less complicated than you thought. If you are using standard receipt printers and cash drawers, you do not need to write any additional drivers for interface to these devices.

For printing to receipt printers, please refer to the sample code in:

For kicking open the cash drawer, please refer to the sample code in:
