we had a BRPE  in an HP configuration  we used  to  output  mylar  from our 
 HP 2000 timeshare system!
We also  at one point had a hi speed TALLY punch also

 rear of the  room  and I think  that is  the TALLY  though...  darn.. been 
to many  years...    this  was  our  development and  test  system and the 
prime system  is  to the  right.   I would  like a HP wrapped BRPE or a 
TALLY  !  Ed Sharpe  Archivist for SMECC

The ad  mentions that the unit punches, which is not difficult to reach
high  speeds.  The BRPE easily punched 1050 wpm and the DRPE
punched up to  2000 wpm.  Printing the characters on the tape is a
whole different  story in 1959.  Reading punched tape fast again was
done by several  Teletype products and other manufacturers but I
would have to see a fifties  machine print characters at 750 wpm to
believe  it.
