Printer Driver Error During Install
What does the Eventlog says?
Do you have point and print GPO disabled on RDS Servers?
Is this an old driver?
I think the problem ist, that the driver is not package aware.
Look at your print-server and look for this Key:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Environments\Windows X64\drivers\
Search your driver and change The Key "PrinterDriverAttributes" to "1"
After that you need to restart your printserver.
I changed the key PrinterDriverAttributes to 1
Still have error:

</Event>Did you restart the printserver after you changed the Key?
Changing PrinterDriverAttributes to 1 tells the system, that this driver is package aware. This needs to be, when Windows Server 2016 wants to install the driver.
Your Eventlog still says that it is not Package Aware.
I downloaded driver off Dell website, so I believe it is the newest driver.
What does the PrinterDriverAttribute control?
Thanks for your help!
