Detailed explanation-1: -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: -Technologies preceding the press that led to the press’s invention included: manufacturing of paper, development of ink, woodblock printing, and distribution of eyeglasses.
Detailed explanation-3: -The innovation that Johannes Gutenberg is said to have created was small metal pieces with raised backwards letters, arranged in a frame, coated with ink, and pressed to a piece of paper, which allowed books to be printed more quickly. But Choe Yun-ui did that-and he did it 150 years before Gutenberg was even born.
