Mr. Johannes Gutenburg - Father of The Printing Press

 

Mr Gutenburg was indeed the father of the moving press, born in 1400 he was a goldsmith and printer. He revolutionised the printing press  by introducing the movable printing press around 1439. This was a big step in the printing world, never imagined possible he created the movable type printing which led to the standards of print we produce today.

 

His contributions are the design of the metal movable type which is essentially the usage of oil-based inks and the wooden press. He made printing practical as an abridged statement and workable to the layman and to the industry of the time to move forward on a grand scale with quality printing previously unseen at this time.

 

Mr.Gutenburg was well acquainted with engraving work and casting and dedicated himself to forwarding and simplifying the print as - in its basic form , we know it today.

 

Mr.Gutenburg was indeed a pioneer and from humble beginnings to his invention of movable print technology, he deserves his status as the father of the printing press.
