The Chinese developed the technique of block printing by ............. AD.
8th Century
Woodblock printing, in which an entire page is carved in relief on a wooden block, inked and pressed onto paper, was developed in China during the Tang dynasty.
By the 8th century AD the technique was in regular use, and the Diamond Sutra of 868 AD is the oldest surviving dated printed book made by this method.
The 5th century is too early for printed texts, while the 11th to 13th centuries saw later developments such as Bi Sheng's movable type, not the beginning of block printing.
Hence, 8th Century.
