Photoshop defaults to full printer color management in Photoshop. This requires that you have the correct print profiles installed, and set that up in the PS print dialog.

Other applications don't do that. They just let the printer driver handle everything. Photoshop can be set up that way too. Instead of "Photoshop manages colors", you pick "printer manages colors".

"Photoshop manages color" is much more accurate and flexible, but you need to know what you're doing. In addition to picking the correct print profile - if available for your printer they will be installed with the driver - you also need to go into the printer driver and disable color management there. Finally, very important, you need to pick the right paper type in the printer driver. You need to do that in both cases.

You have not offered any info about your system, your printer, your print settings, color profiles and so on. This is not going anywhere, I'm afraid.
