Well, if both printers are serial, then you would not be able to use them in OS X, unless you get a USB to serial adapter like the Belkins' one. If you do get that kind of adapter, then I would suggest a Pismo. Otherwise, a Wallstreet might be better since it has serial ports but, remember, you won't be able to run OS X and print. Furthermore, if you go with a Wallstreet, the last officially supported version of OS X to run on it is 10.2, although the "hack" XPostFacto apparently lets you install 10.3 on a Wallstreet and other officially unsupported Macintosh...

Running 10.3.4 on my Wallstreet 233MHz (384MB of RAM) with the generous help of XPostFacto.
It is completely stable and significantly faster than Jaguar. (Your mileage may vary, of course)
That said, I think that the Pismo is probably the choice I'd make: usb and firewire built-in, plus dvd support on OS X, and the fact that it is a "new world rom" machine make this a better choice, in my opinion. You can get usb, firewire and wi-fi (and I have) on the wallstreet via cardbus cards; Airport can be had on the Pismo internally. On the Wallstreet you can have at most two, or perhaps one at a time, depending on the thickness of the cardbus cards.
