Last $job switched from Xerox to Toshiba (I think they got a better deal 
on them).  They were both combo copier/scanners/fax/color network 
printers.  I thought the Toshiba in our space did very well.  It was 
very fast, and had very configurable drivers (alas, the Windows admin 
did not install the best driver by default, but it was easy to DL and 
install it myself).  The color output from some of the sales folk's 
materials was very good, IMO.

The older Phaser's I've seen are very nice, too, but iirc, wasn't the 
Phaser division of Tektronix bought by Xerox? So Phaser == Xerox these days.
