Summary: , all three missions had printing presses in Calcutta where they printed tracts and religious materials. The Serampore missionaries led the way with their press, inspiring the other missions to establish their own press in the city. The press was an essential tool for the missionaries to spread their message and teachings, leading to the establishment of prominent printing establishments in the city during the early 19th century. The Calcutta B.M.S. missionaries purchased the press from the L.M.S. missionaries, showcasing the collaboration and exchange of resources among the missions.
