Hi,

You can control PR2's grippers by calling the gripper action server. For example, the right gripper provides the action r_gripper_controller/gripper_action which you can call as

$ rosrun actionlib axclient.py /r_gripper_controller/gripper_action

To do it from a python script, you can adapt this tutorial to call the gripper action.
