LOAD LETTER means that the printer currently contains A4 paper (or it has detected the paper is in an A4 tray) and your application has asked for Letter paper (as you have noticed). I don't see the problem, unless I've missed something! If you have A4 paper in your printer then you should set your apps to use A4 too.
