He invented the printing press. Movable type. Printed the very first print Bible. Allowed books and stories to be passed on quicker, and distrubuted to all instead of just the rich and religious leaders, as it had been up until then.

The invention of the movable type printing press greatly impacted the spread of information.
Because a printer could make more copies faster than people could copy them in longhand, the news or whatever took less time to get to its destination, even though it was still carried on horseback or foot.

He invented the moveable printing press thus making the production of texts and books less expensive.Previously they had had to be hand written and were available only to the wealthy. With the invention of the printing press books and texts could be mass produced and made affordable to the more ordinary and less wealthy classes.
