Johann Gutenberg’s invention of the printing press around 1448 had a significant impact on the spread of ideas in Europe and beyond. Printing technology traveled quickly across Europe and, at a time of great religious change, played a key role in the success of the Protestant Reformation. Reformation leader Martin Luther could only preach to a small number of people, but the printed word could spread his message to thousands more
The printing press drastically cut the cost of producing books and other printed materials. Prior to Gutenberg’s invention, the only way of making multiple copies of a book was to copy the text by hand, an laborious and intensely time-consuming occupation usually performed by monks. The materials involved were also costly: Monks wrote on treated skins, known as vellum, and a single copy of the Bible could require 300 sheepskins or 170 calfskins. Printing onto paper made copying cheaper and faster.

Answer:
Increasing worker productivity.
Explanation:
Over the centuries, humans and animals were largely used as a means to generate power, execute tasks or do certain things during the production and distribution process.

Some examples of such inanimate sources are Steam plants, Nuclear plants, Wind etc.
During the Industrial Revolution, new technology affected the economy of the United States by increasing worker productivity. Factory workers weren't exclusively subjected to manual labor rather, they had the advantage and opportunity to use automatic machinery or equipment. These helped to make the workers perform their jobs effectively and efficiently and as such increasing the level of goods and services produced.
