How does lprsetup determine the next available lowest number when adding
a printer?  The ? help reflects:
 
"Lprsetup uses an internal numbering scheme from 0 to 99. The next
available number is the default name, you may choose......"
 
It seems it doesn't correlate to printcap entries.  Maybe it scans the
lpd??? directory numbers in /var/spool/ directory?  Somewhere else???
lprsetup is COFF.
