Sending options to cups backend

I'm trying to make a cups backend with a bash script to e-mail a PDF. I've got it working fine for e-mailing the PDF to the user that sent the print job. I would like to give users the option to send it to a user other than themselves though.
My first thought was to use IPP in Windows and send the email via the query string of the url. Something like:
http://server:631/printers/Email_PDF?email=target@email.com
And then from within my script, I could extract the email from QUERY_STRING.
Apparently CUPS is returning a 404 when I attach a query string to the URL though.
Am I completely going about this the wrong way? How should I do this?
