The printing press must be considered one of the greatest inventions ever made for the benefit of mankind and one that had changed the world.
The development of printing has made it possible for books, newspapers, magazines, and other reading materials to be produced in great numbers, and it plays an important role in promoting literacy among the masses.

HISTORY OF PRINTING

Johannes Gutenberg is usually cited as the inventor of the printing press.
His 15th-century contribution to the technology was revolutionary — enabling the mass production of books and the rapid dissemination of knowledge throughout Europe.
However, the history of printing begins long before Gutenberg's time.

HISTORY OF PRINTING

Early Mesopotamian civilization before 3000 BCE.
The Chinese were the first to invent the art of printing. They made wooden blocks to print letters during the period of the Tang Dynasty in 600 AD.
The oldest known surviving printed work in a woodblock is a Buddhist scripture of 684 AD. It is now exhibited in a calligraphy museum in Tokyo, the capital of Japan.

The first printed book published in China was the Buddhist text, the “Diamond Sutra” by Wang Chick in 868 AD. Some copies of the Buddhist scriptures printed in 1377 are preserved in museums in China. This book is now housed in the British Library in London.
Though the Egyptians made paper by 3500 BC, it came to Europe only by the 11 th century. The first paper mill in Europe was set up in Spain in 1120.

Later, movable-type presses using cast ceramics were employed in China from the early years of the last millennium.
The carved wooden blocks used for this early method of printing were also used in Japan and Korea as early as the 8 th century.
Private printers in these places used both wood and metal blocks to produce Buddhist and Taoist treatises and histories in the centuries before movable type was invented.

An important advancement to woodblock printing came in the early 11 th century, when a Chinese peasant named Bi Sheng developed the world's first movable type. Sheng’s movable characters methods were made out of baked clay.
The ink used was a mix of pine resin, wax and paper ashes, and this method could be used to print thousands of copies of a document fairly quickly.

In the 14 th century, Wang Chen, a Chinese government official of the Yuan Dynasty , independently created his own set of movable characters out of wood, using tried-and-true woodblock methods, not movable type.
Metal type ( made from bronze and perhaps tin) was also used in China for the printing of books and paper money until at least the 18 th century.

metal movable type was also developed independently in Korea in the late 14 th century.
The mechanization of bookmaking led to the first mass production of books in Europe.
A single Renaissance printing press could produce 3 , 600 pages per workday.

James Augustus Hickey, an English man, started and edited the first newspaper in India.
On 29 th January 1780 , in Calcutta, Bengal Gazette or the Calcutta General Advertiser (popularly known as Hickey’s Journal) began with two sheet as a weekly.
