With commercial uplink as a service these days, what is a realistic multi-decade program cost for a deep space probe with DSN Deep Space Network or better for communications?

Could a solar sail like IKAROS or LightSail2 do Pluto or interstellar? Made of UV-resistant Lignin-Vitrimer with Lignin-derived Carbon Fiber?
