Try the formula

=IF(Sheet1!F14="","",Sheet1!F14)

in the linked cell.

I have linked a cell from another sheet. If the original cell is blank, 0
shows in the linked cell (text would be typed in source cell).

To handle this, I conditionally formatted the linked cell, so if it equals
zero, the font colour is the same as the background colour of the cell so
you
can't see the zero

But the zero still prints even though it is not showing prior to printing
