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.

Yes, I restarted the Print Server. Any other ideas? Do I also need to restart the Terminal Server that I am having the install issues on?

You can try to reboot the Terminal Server also but I don't think that this will help?
Have you tried to install the driver directly on the Terminal Server?

I just downloaded the driver from Dell website and tried to install directly on Terminal Server and get error
