This is a 3M branded toner vacuum. What is a toner vacuum and why is it needed? When there is a great deal of particulate matter in the airstream, it can become combustible. If you vacuum loose toner up with a regular vacuum, there is a chance of explosion or fire! That's why the toner vacuum was invented. Everything is grounded of course, and in addition to that, it uses a .3 micron filter instead of a bag; this does not allow toner particles to get through to the motor, eliminating the chance of a problem.
I don't have toner spills, so I use this vacuum (taken out of regular service years ago) as a sort of "dustbuster" or other small vacuum. It has great suction as well, sucks up just about anything. I have another vacuum like this made by Omega, and that has an extra-long hose, great for vacuuming steps! I just place the vacuum at the top or bottom of the steps and the hose reaches the entire length! Quick and easy, plenty of power, all around a great vacuum. Fortunately I also have a surplus of filters for it. I recently used this vacuum to clean the lint from the inside of my dryers.
