Gutenberg was ordered by the court to turn his printing shop over to Furst. He was also ordered to turn over half of the bibles he had already printed.
Johannes Gutenberg likely turned over his printing shop to Johann Fust due to financial reasons. Gutenberg borrowed money from Fust to fund his printing operations, and when he could not repay the debt, Fust took control of the printing shop as collateral.
Johann Fust was Johannes Gutenberg's partner in inventing the printing press. He was a moneylender whose relationship with Gutenberg ended after a money dispute between the two, due to the fact that Gutenberg was low on money very often.
Johannes Gutenberg was a German inventor and printer known for developing the movable-type printing press in the 15th century. He did not have a specific patron, but his invention was supported by Johann Fust, a wealthy businessman who provided financial backing for Gutenberg's printing press.

Usually, people say that he invented printing by movable type. (Printing from woodblocks and engraved copper plates was already known). However, printing by movable type had already been invented in Korea, and there was some contact between the Far East and Europe. Some believe that he improved the Korean or that he improved the production of movable type. Please see the link below.
