Windows 10: Pitney Bowes LPS-1 label printer not recognized in Windows 10

I know this printer is compatible with the QLS-500 from Brother it has been slightly modified for PB's use but it reports itself via USB as a PB LPS-1, not a QL-500, so the Brother installer refuses to install the driver for it. Now what?

:)

 

How can I get Windows 10 to recognize an Unspecified Device as a Printer?

I have installed a DYMO printer, but it is not listed as a printer but only as an Unspecified Device. How can I get Windows 10 to recognize an Unspecified Device as a Printer? All printer troubleshooting steps require it to be listed as a Printer, and
all Help solutions assume that it can be recognized as a printer.
