Who sorts the printer model names?

I couldn't find my LaserJet 6L in the list of HP printers
the first time I tried to setup a printer on FC6 because
I scrolled down through a bunch of HP model names till
I noticed I'd reached a chunk of LaserJet entries
and I see I'm at "LaserJet 1015", obviously
"LaserJet 6L" is after that, isn't it?

Bu no, the list stops at "LaserJet Plus", with no 6L
showing up. I eventually decided to look backwards
for the start of the LaserJet entries, and there was
the 6L I was looking for up near the top.

Huh?

It would make more sense if they were just completely
randomized, that way I'd know I had to look through
them one at a time :-).
