Which brand of multi-function copy-scan-fax-printers prints superior documents from a Mac?

I need to lease a new multi-function copier, scanner, printer, booklet finisher, and fax machine. We are a Mac only office. I need a device that produces superior documents with the Mac driver. The driver should have complete parity in its capabilities with its windows counterpart. (e.g.: if you can staple in three places with the windows driver - you should be able to do so on the Mac)

Who makes the best machine for this scenario?

I like the Brother Multi Function Laser Printer/Copier/Scanners.
http://www.brother-usa.com/lp/multifunction-printers.aspx?cid=GooglePPC&jkId=8a8ae4cc1cdf1634011ce059b4e64e26&jt=1&jadid=2881916954&js=1&jk=brother%20printer%20mfc&jsid=10495&jmt=1&;

Some models also ADD Faxing and auto duplex printing capabilities(black and white only). The scanner scans in color.
Is both Mac and Windoze compatible. Some models even have USB & parallel ports. But buy a printer cable. Some models start at $225ish up to $500.
I've had mine 5 years, and it's been very reliable. Very affordable to operate (if you can get by on black and white only.)
It's not an office grade machine (by volume), but works well for a small office machine w/ light copying needs.
It's OK for daily printing, but I wouldn't want to run 200 prints off this machine w/ any frequency. The smaller machines don't handle the resulting heat that well. If you need
