    Invention of printing
    Johannes Gutenberg is credited with inventing the printing press around 1436, although he was far from the first to automate the book-printing process.The history of printing starts as early as 3500 BCE, when the proto-Elamite and Sumerian civilizations used cylinder seals to certify documents written in clay.
