Answer:

B. It reduced printing costs.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is B,

The abundance of print materials encouraged efforts to standardize the English language. To publishers, standards were a cost-saving measure. If writers and editors adhered to the same standards, the printing process could be replicated for a wide variety of materials. Writers curbed their use of italics and limited capitalization to the initial letter of proper nouns and the start of sentences. These changes made publishing less complicated and less expensive.
