Received a new laptop and needing to re-establish connection with a previously working printer.
I downloaded latest driver from the canon website - called win-mx470-1_1-ucd
I uploaded the printer's firmware version
I have tried to run the install as "Run as Administrator"
My internet is connected.
I keep receiving the "Information Acquisition Error" when trying to run the .exe file.
I have also tried updating the .exe and turning into .zip and running the "MSETUP4.EXE" directly as administrator and keep receiving the same error.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance

1/19 - super pumped as I resolved it myself.
I used netplwiz to associate myself as an Administrator, then re-logged in and it worked. See below for steps.
