I think that the drawer will have to use hiddev. Input events won't work because of the Application page for POS. I've posted a little information, but it isn't very good. Try http://www.frogmouth.net/hid-doco/examples/hiddev-misc/dump-events.c and http://www.frogmouth.net/hid-doco/examples/hiddev-misc/write-events.c as examples.
I definitely recommend against writing a HID parser (in C or Java - its still HIDeous).
