Movable type printing is an ancient printing method, which was invented by working people in ancient China through long-term practice and research. First, make a model of the original text and inverted text of the single word, then select the single word according to the original, arrange it in the font plate, ink it and print it, and then remove the font after printing, so as to use it again in the next typesetting.

The invention of movable type printing is a great technological revolution in the history of printing. Clay movable type invented by China in the Northern Song Dynasty (1048) and Bi Sheng (970- 105 1) marked the birth of movable type printing. He was the first inventor in the world, about 400 years before Johannes Gutenberg invented movable type printing.

In Yuan Dynasty, Wang Zhen successfully created wooden movable type and invented wheel typesetting. In the middle of Ming Dynasty, copper movable type was widely used in Nanjing, Wuxi, Suzhou and other places in Jiangsu.

Because Cai Lun improved the production of paper in the Han Dynasty, the writing materials were lighter and more economical than Oracle Bone Inscriptions, bamboo slips, stones and silks used in the past, but copying books was still very labor-intensive, far from meeting the needs of society. The method of copying rubbings appeared in Xiping period (AD 172- 178).

Printing is one of the four great inventions of Han working people in ancient China. It began with block printing in the Tang Dynasty, and was developed and perfected by Bi Sheng in the Song Renzong era, resulting in movable type printing.
