Or just filling the paper tray (that's what the error means)

Filling the paper tray with US Letter sized paper. If you aren't in the US, you don't use it and might not even be able to buy any.

A non US printer would most likely not configure the tray for letter sized paper. It likely says "PC load A4" for the rest of the world.

The rest of the world gets 'PC load letter' when they try to print a document from the US which is configured for US Letter paper, or an application or driver decides to default to that paper size. And it's very confusing, since they have no idea that 'letter' is a paper size.
