75 baud on a TTY (clank, clank, clank, ding, thud as the printer head returned to the beginning of the line) and an amazingly fast speed of 300 baud on the up-market Terminet (? spelling).

110 and 300 Bps. (model 35 and 33)
75 and 50 Baud was 5 level code (model 15, 19, 28 and 32)
There was never a 1200 Bps gearset
