Who was John gutenburg?
John Gutenberg is given credit as the first European to print with movable types cast in molds. He did this in the 1450's. Little is actually known about Gutenberg. He was from Mainz, Germany and used his mother's maiden name, Gutenberg instead of his father's, Gensfleisch. His masterpiece was the Mazarin Bible or the Gutenberg Bible. It is believed that the bible was completed in 1455. His invention allowed books to be printed cheaper, faster, and in huge qualities, allowing people easier access to books. Without his movable type printing press, the Reformation might not have happened. Even though he is credited with one of the most important European inventions, it is believed by some that he died in poverty. Today, a full Gutenberg Bible would sell in the millions.
How come Johann Gutenberg gets all the credit but pi sheng invented the printing press before him?
Traditionally, Gutenberg has gotten much credit because of Eurocentric history-writing. Sometimes it has gotten distorted so that Gutenberg was credited of inventing printing or being first with movable types. However, Pi Sheng didn't invent the printing press; he was first with inventing moveable types. The printing press was probably invented by Gutenberg, although there are theories about other people in Europe invented it such as Laurens Janszoon Coster

What material were used to make the printer of joham gutensberg?
Gutenberg was probably the first European to use movable type printing, in around 1439, although the claim that he was the inventor of the printing press is necessarily unsubstantiated; his invention of a method of using movable types to print books probably involved a press, but we have no way of knowing its form or to what degree it may have been a simple adaptation of existing screw-presses used to press grapes, cloth and paper. Whatever the truth of the technology he developed, he was certainly the earliest European printer successfully to print a substantial book, and appears to have perfected the combination of movable type, printing inks and some kind of printing press in order to make book printing possible for the first time, on a commercial footing. Gutenberg's method for making type is traditionally considered to have included a type metal alloy and a hand mould for casting type, although here too the details of his technology remain unknown and have been reconstructed on very uncertain evidence gained from an examination of his printed work and from what is known of later type-making technologies.(Source wikipedia)
How many types of pulleys are their?
