Yes, I have interfaced a 75. The interface isn't hard, the thing with 
the 75 is that the keyboard is mechanically connected to the print

I have a 75ERP so with a punch, a 7B so KSR some 6S readers and a 75. I 
believe Turing brought a Creed 7B to Manchester when he came which could 
be the reason many UK computers used paper tape rather than cards.
