I'd be fine for a printer in the 1000-2000 EUR price class.
My last printer was the Kyocera and it cost 2500-3000EUR.

I think that have been discussed elsewhere before.
Let's say I like postscript, I do some programming in it from time to
time, I like the results I get with it, and I'm kind of tired of
converting what I have just because the printer is too stupid to
understand it. If possible I require all printers I buy to have
postscript, the exception is large format inkjets.
