they had moveable type? I thought the Chinese only did "printing" by carving the text into a wooden block and then using that to copy it over and over.

But... that was the whole fricking value lmao. The point was you could go to a printer (or they'd come to you) and within hours you'd have as many copies of your manuscript printed as you wanted (and paid for). The Chinese couldn't do that because it took weeks if not longer to carve the plates. The cost and time savings are literally the entire reason the printing press was useful.
