Moving this to the tech section where hopefully someone with knowledge will be able to help you out.

can someone get vista to work with printers?

have you spilled anything on it? Behavior like that can be a sign of a degrading chip in the keyboard itself.

 

try unplugging it for over 10 minutes, if it doesn't work still,

 

try another keyboard and see if that solves the problem. then for sure you know the keyboard is no good

Run the keyboard through your dishwasher and let it dry completely.

What type of computer is it?

 

I had similar on my Dell Studio laptop. The fix is to unplug/disconnect everything, remove the battery, press and hold the power button for 10 seconds, then put it back together.
