Can't find a date on this thread, so forgive me if this is dead. I was a Teletype repair tech back in the day and have a working Teletype model 15 teleprinter (no tape). Mine requires 60 miliamp DC loop and operates at 45.5 baud with 5 bit baudot code. The 33 can be configured to run 60 or 20 miliamp loop. If you can find a terminal adapter that supplies loop current, all you have to do is insert a relay in the loop, set the terminal adapter to "Standby" and key the circuit with your external device. I have a GSM/GPRS modem hooked up to an Audrino Mega. It sends SMS messages received to a BetaBritte LED display mounted on the wall, copies the SMS text and sends it to my phone. Next I will send the SMS to the Model 15 teletype. (If anyone sees this, please respond if the project is still open.) Thanks.
