I need to get a printer, my old one is not compatible with this or something.
Is there a specific type that you need to buy for a specific laptop, or will generally any new printers work?
Its also on windows vista..

Don't think alot of printers will work with Vista.
The second statement is wrong.
OP, it would be very hard to find a printer that didn't worth with your PC. I'm guessing if its very old it would have a parallel port and not USB.
1 Via USB cable direct to the computer (All printers have this option)
2 Wireless via your home network (This is probably the recommended home solution)
3 Ethernet connection to the network
Decide how you wish to connect then choose printer with required interface.
What's the printer make and model? It might just be that you need to download a Vista driver.
