Detailed explanation-1: -What is Johannes Gutenberg known for? Johannes Gutenberg is known for having designed and built the first known mechanized printing press in Europe. In 1455 he used it to print the Gutenberg Bible, which is one of the earliest books in the world to be printed from movable type.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Gutenberg Bible had been designed for liturgical usage in ecclesiastical settings, but later printed Bibles were increasingly designed for ever more sophisticated private or domestic readings. It is estimated that perhaps some three million Bibles, all of different types, were in circulation by the 1700s.
Detailed explanation-3: -In the mid-1400s a German craftsman named Johannes Gutenberg developed a way to handle this process by machine-the first printing press. His invention combined movable pieces of metal type that could be reused with a press that could produce sharp impressions on paper over and over again.
