Print revolution is revolution in which the hand printng change into machine printing. The first print machine was developed by the gutenburg and its significance :— before printed books flooded the market the common people used to gatherin public places and book were read out to them.

Print revolution is baisically the changes that took place in the field of print before printing presses were invented by guthenburg . PRINT REVOLUTION AND ITS IMPACTS: 1.with the printing press, a new reading public emerged. Printing reduced the cost of books. 2. The time and labour required to produce each book came down, and multiple copies could be produced with greater ease. 3.Books flooded the market, reaching out to an ever-growing readership.  Access to books created a new culture of reading. 4.Earlier, reading was restricted to the elites. Common people lived in a world of oral culture. 5.Before the age of print, books were not only expensive but they could not be produced in sufficient numbers. Now books could reach out to wider sections of people. But the transition was not so simple. Books could be read only by the literate, and the rates of literacy in most European countries were very low till the twentieth century. 6.Print created the possibility of wide circulation of ideas, and introduced a new world of debate and discussion. Even those who disagreed with established authorities could now print and circulate their ideas. Through the printed message, they could persuade people to think differently, and move them to action. This had significance in different spheres of life. Thank you??
