Answer:

1: The printing press made the manufacturing of books cheaper, easier, and faster. 2: The printing press allowed books to be accessible to more people (cheaper and greater amount of books.) 3: The printing press allowed the spread of ideas across a wider area (spread of books --spread of knowledge/ideas) How's that?
The printing press was invented by Gutenberg arround 1440. 1) It encouraged people to learn to read and a rise in literacy resulted. 2) Vernacular languages increased which allowed people of a poorer education to be able to buy and understand books. 3) The printing of the Bible in vernacular led to self-interpretation and more criticism of priests (eventually led to religious reform).
