His paternal uncle was distinguished poet Ilija Zagurović.

The types used in his printing house remained in the monastery until Jerolim Zagurović found them somewhere before 1569.

[9] One of the motives of Jerolim Zagurović to establish the printing house was to earn some profit from it to compensate losses of the Zagurović family business caused by frequent Ottoman sieges of Kotor.

[7] Zagurović did not have a formal theological education so he had to engage Jakov of Kamena Reka to edit and proofread the texts before printing.

[14] Zagurović's printing press was firstly taken over by Jakov of Kamena Reka, and then in 1597 by Bartolomeo Ginammi who used it until 1638.
