Printer settings

I was told I asked in the wrong forum, hoping this is the right one! 

I have printed a photo from photoshop and somehow the printing has become a mess, first time I printed the photo was faded, second time I printed (not sure what I changed to be honest, colorsync kept coming up and all. I said was Okay) and it printed in grey scale, now after hours of trying to just print a nice quality photo, It comes out crazy in either too dark, not right, or greyscale. so I would love to rest the print settings, just to go back to what it was prior to me going nuts today. but i do not want to reset the entire PS < i am worried I would lose my desktop settings and brushes would be removed, moved around etc that I have already set up years ago to my liking. Please help!thank you !!
