'b-'. you did not answer which model and usage of paper. :)
asr33, paper scroll :-)
ASR33s also had the paper tape punch and reader. KSR33s did not. I
had both hooked up to my Altair 8800 back in '77 via 110 baud, 20mA
current
loop serial interfaces.
Ah, memories!
ASR33 on a Altair, that far back, You must be at least 100,
Smart*ss! Nah, I was in college (sophmore).
I started out on a RCA 1802 8 bit and I still have it. I modified it to
work on S100 bus so I could get more memory , 64k , man you were top
dog with that kind of memory.
Only had 56K (seven 8KB RAM cards) and a nice 8K EPROM board (had 1702A
PROMS on it) holding a monitor program.

I don't think anything has had a fast pace change like the Computer.
Then you had to really get into the nuts and bolts of a computer to get
one working.
I also still have a dual 8" floppy drive that was big back then.
I can remember when the 3 1/2, 1.4mb floppy first came boy did that make
a big difference.
