I would be gratefull for your suggestions for the cheapest

Unfortunately the suggested printers page at linuxprinting.org

in this category (I doubt) that would be great too.

Why do you insist they be Postscript printers? Linux systems
typically use ghostscript to interpret Postscript and generate native
printer-control code. This works quite well for printers supported by
ghostscript.
