If both drawers should open simultaneously you could try a simple rj11 phone splitter. If it will work, will depend on how much current the output of the printer can deliver. The open cash drawer command is basically just an electricity pulse.

I think it is not possible to control two cash drawers separately.

I found this site with very useful information:
http://keyhut.com/popopen.htm

The CT-S2000 has, according to this site, only support for one cash drawer, and no support for escpos. You could try this in your printer template <XCT 27,112,0,50,250> for printer 1 and <XCT 27,112,1,50,250> for printer 2
