Tickets are not sold on buses. In rare occasions, you'll find a machine at some bus stops. If it works, it surprises anyone with how complex a ticket sale can be with its encrypted initials and four languages. A better solution is to buy tickets at tobacco stores, cafès, and newspaper stands. Even so, non everyone sells them, so you might want to ask around. When you find them, they may carry the old tickets, or the new ones. Some metros and buses take the first type, others take the second one. They are planning to switch completely to the second type. The new ticket (supposed to be high tech) crashes some validation machines, which might no longer react or may indicate that the memory is full... Some buses have both machines, which don't always work. Fortunately, Romans did not organize the switch from national currencies to Euros.
