Explain how the printing press altered renaissance society. your answer should be at least 150 words.

The printing press allowed for books, as well as other written materials, to be made much quicker than. This speed was made by mass printing of each page instead of writing out each page by hand. The early printing press was still much slower than modern day printing technology as each machine had to be set by hand for one page. Despite this, once the page is set it can continuously make printed copies of that page as long as it was properly covered in ink before each new page. This efficiency led to mass production of literature at a much more affordable price. The lowered price allowed for lower class people to purchase books and learn to become literate. Before, the higher class were the only ones able to afford books because books were very expensive due to the time it took to be made.

 In the Renaissance, all of the notes, letters, and even books were written by hand. This meant it would take way longer to write stories and mass produce them, and letters that were sent to numerous people would way longer because the sender would have to write all of the letters and, even with help from other people, this would take way longer then just printing things out and then mailing them. After the printing press people could mass produce books and other writings without having to write them more than once and printing them off. This also meant that it would be much easier to send letters to more than one person, because the sender can print the words on the papers without writing them more than once. Many people used the Printing Press to start stories, write letters to more than one person, and to possibly write biographies, comedies, and plays.
