}}The '''IBM 519 Document-Originating Machine''', introduced in 1946, was the last in a series of [[unit record equipment|unit record machines]] designed for automated preparation of [[punched card]]s. Others in the series included the [[#IBM 513|IBM 513]] & [[#IBM 514|IBM 514]] Reproducing Punch.

The 519, which was "state of the art for the time",<ref>

could:
* reproduce all or parts of the information on a set of cards
* "[[Gangpunch (computing)|gangpunch]]" - copy information from a master card into the following detail cards
* print up to eight digits on the end of a card
* compare two decks of cards
* "summary punch" — create punch cards containing summary information provided by a connected [[Tabulating machine|accounting machine]], such as totals from a group of processed cards
* "[[mark sense]]" — detect marks made with an electrographic pencil in designated locations on a punched card and then punch holes corresponding to those marks into the card
* number cards consecutively (an optional feature)

The reproducing, gangpunching, summary punching, and comparing features of the IBM 519 are very similar to those of the IBM 513 and IBM 514.

Production of the IBM 519 was still going strong in 1956/1957, and production was consolidated to [[IBM Rochester|Rochester]] (for the Americas) and [[Milan, Italy]].<ref>{{cite web
