This technological revolution provided the foundation for publishing industry.
This technological shift created the world's first mass - market business model. Combining wine press technology and jewellery techniques, the Gutenberg press reduced manuscript production time and costs by a massive 90%.
The publishing process became industrialized and started to look for its market.
Gutenberg's main inventions were the printer's ink, the making of type, the use of a press and perhaps most importantly the production process itself which combined these techniques to produce printed books.
Johannes Gutenberg triggered an explosion in the way information was presented in that era.
There were many books available in Europe just after Gutenberg's invention. Science, literature and history flourished in that period of time.
The publishing industries adapted themselves according to the changing technology from time to time. For example, steam presses were developed in Industrial age. In modern times, the steam presses were replaced by electric printing presses. In the age of computers, publishing became digitized.
