MAXIFY GX7021 Software Won't Install

I'm trying to setup a user within my organization to print via a Canon GX7021, I tried downloading the drivers from the Canon website directly, but I'm running into an issue where it prevents me from installing the software due to request of administrator privileges. Even though I am entering an admin account for approval the software throws and error regardless. The user's laptop is on a local domain, the accounts has administrator privileges and I'm connecting the printer via network. The user had the printer connected successfully via the network had no issues up to this point. I tried using alternate admin accounts still no luck. I provided a screenshot to the exact location where I got the drivers below;
