Printed pictures coloured very different than displayed on screen

[efiste2]

When I print colour pictures on my Epson XP900, the colours on the actual print are very different to what was on the screen at the time. I am using good quality paper quality ink why is it so different between screen and printer and whats the best way to get a similar result to what is on the screen. My last print was of a boat with a blue sky background, in my eye it was well balanced on the screen but ended up having a heavy blue tint on the actual print

Export As Different Colour from Main

I'm having an Exporting issue in both LR and PS. Curiously the Export As preview window in PS is already accurately showing the tone differences between what it is going to spit out vs what the main image in PS/LR shows. Easier for you to see from the screen grab provided. Essentially we're...

Is your screen calibrated?
is your printer profiled?
do you have the icc profiles of the card?

to make a quality print the whole process must be managed in an optimal way
if one of these is not properly calibrated
you will not have acceptable results
