I want to type some instructions in an Excel document but I don't want the
text to print. Is this possible?
 
How about using comments? Right click>InsertComment
OR
You can define the print area from menu File>Print Area

If this post helps click Yes
 
another idea is to change your screen color to an off-white color,
then put whatever you want in white text. you will be able to read
the white text due to your off-white color of your screen, but when
you print on white paper the white text is unreadable.
note: changing your screen color in windows affects all applications.
