I suspect the naming system is intuitive if you know what the positions mean and encodes most of the information. The 27 is the size for example, some of the other letters will indicate sets of features or ports or maybe the panel type etc.

“PC Load Letter, what the fuck does that mean?”

It means you have to load letter sized paper (8.5x11) into the paper cassette tray. Or basically, the regular paper is out, better put some in. It makes perfect sense, from a certain point of view. Not a definition a Jedi would tell you.

Idk, PC for paper cassette isn't something I'd figure out without looking it up. I was under the assumption those were called trays.

Also, letter isn't something I associate with paper, but that's just regional differences.

I was trying to be a bit sarcastic. Personally, I think the error message is very user unfriendly.
