See
http://www.cups.org/documentation.php/doc-1.4/spec-ppd.html
in particular "cupsPreFilter" may help but note the
CUPS version since when it is supported.

On the other hand perhaps a "System V style interface script"
might better fit your particular needs.

For background information you may have a look at
