    First you will have to find and buy the PK11. If you go the eBay route then be careful because many of the PS kits have already been registered and the seller really has no idea what they are selling.

    Once you have the PK11 you go to Sharps Product Key site and enter the copier model, SN, product (PK11) and the key that comes with the PK11. You will then get the Product Key to unlock it on the copier or it will be emailed to you. The Sharp Product Key site requires a dealer login.

        mloudy not only beat me to the punch, but at the same time made me feel lazy.....

        Also check driver availability.....
        what MAC OS is the client printing from and does the M266 w/pk11 support it.

          Not only do I have cat like reflexes but I can run cirles around most grown men like a crazed dog

            Gotta love it, money for Macs AND a couple hundred $$$ for the PS option to keep a M266 going.....oof!

            A cheap desktop box to replace would be cheaper, more reliable and would make you look good...my 2 cents.


            Failing to plan is planning to fail!!!

                  You might be able to get it printing from the Mac without Postscript. Try using "generic PCL driver" and change protocol to "Line Printer Daemon". If it works, the only downside is the extra tray / finisher options will be missing.
