Answer:

While johann gutenberg is credited with inventing movable type, the roots of printing come from far east traditions

Step-by-step explanation:

We don't always remember that the press is not started with Gutenberg: in the far east, the inventions of paper, blocks printing and movable types were important steps from another story of printing and books.

A story that doesn't only started centuries before Gutenberg as still goes on. In craft workshops, all over China still produce today a few million woodcuts per year: New Year's prints (nianhua), amulets (fu) and papers to burn to the gods and to the dead (zhima).
