The printing industry is a diverse industry printing on a wide range of substrates, such as paper, paperboard, polymers, metals, etc., using a broad range of printing technologies. This report covers the reasons & technique of minimizing waste in the Sheet-Fed Printing Industries covering wide range of paperboard substrates. With the case study of Radhey Krishna Offset Press, Hisar, it was found that average board wastage in any typical quality sheet-fed offset press is almost 5 %.In this paper authors tries to identify the main reasons of wastage in small scale printing industry along with the solution to minimizing wastage of paperboard & cardboard on sheet-fed offset printing industry. As substrate contribute 60-70% of total cost of production saving in 2-4 % of paperboard by minimizing the printing waste will lead to cost saving of production & increase the profit of organization.
