The history of the printing press began with **Johannes Gutenberg**'s invention in the mid-15th century. His **movable type printing press**, developed around 1440 in Mainz, Germany, revolutionized the production of books by allowing for the mass production of texts, rather than manual copying. Gutenberg’s press used **metal type** and **oil-based ink** to create more efficient and cost-effective printing. This innovation led to the **dissemination of knowledge**, fostering the spread of the **Renaissance**, **Reformation**, and **Scientific Revolution**. The printing press significantly impacted education, literacy, and the accessibility of information, marking a pivotal moment in history that transformed communication and cultural development.
