    Printer Installation

    I am trying to install my Canon i470D. When I click on "Windows Update" the
    "next" button briefly lights up and then goes grey again. Task manager show
    that install printer is running, but I can't get to the next step and nothing
    gets installed.

    Canon support works very well.

    Go to canon's website, and see if they have a Vista compatible driver for
    your exact printer model.

    Download and save it to your Desktop.
    Also, read the instructions for installing their printers.
    Whether connect printer 1st, then load software; or the other way around.

    Double-click on the desktop file to install the printer driver.
