William Maxwell (c. 1766 – September 10, 1809) was the first engraver to publish a newspaper in Cincinnati , Ohio . The paper was called the Centinel of the Northwest Territory , and the first issue was published on Saturday, November 9, 1793. The motto of the paper was "Open to all parties–but influenced by none". He used a portable wood printing press , which he took with him to Lexington, Kentucky and set up a business. In 1793 he left for Cincinnati and began his weekly newspaper, which consisted of four pages and had a limited circulation. The printing press he used was much like the one invented by Johann Gutenberg . In 1796 he printed Laws of the Territory of the United States Northwest of the Ohio in Cincinnati, a two-hundred and twenty-five page book with one-thousand issues printed. Subsequently known as " Maxwell's Code ", this was the first book printed in the Northwest Territory .
