Apparently there are no canon examples of imperatives with {-ta'} or {-pu'}.
The only examples I found of imperatives with a type 7 suffix were these four 
examples, all with {-taH}:
{yIghoStaH} steady on course!, maintain this course!    [TKD p. 42]
{yIjuntaH}      take evasive action!    [TKD p. 42]
{Duj tIvoqtaH}  Always trust your instincts.    [TKD p. 171] phrase #29
mupwI' yI'uchtaH!   Keep holding the hammer!    [TKW p. 120]
