Hi,
I have been fighting with this on and off for about a year, but finally just got my 1050C Plus working on Win10. For me it came down to 2 things:
1 - don't forget that these printers cannot connect directly to the ethernet port of your PC, they must go through a switch.
2 - port selection. When I manually installed the driver, I selected LPT1 as the port. What finally got mine working was switching to the correct IP port further down the list.
As a note, the Print Test Page options do not work, but I can print from within whatever software I am using.
Hope that helps someone.
Arfur
