Etymology
The word 'printing' originated from the Middle English word 'printen', which came from the Old French word 'preinte', meaning 'impression' or 'mark'. The use of printing press revolutionized communication and dissemination of information. Johannes Gutenberg is credited with inventing the movable-type printing press around 1440, which enabled the mass production of books and other printed materials. Printing has played a crucial role in the spread of knowledge, culture, and ideas throughout history.
