I have a Mac computer which shows brilliant colors for photos, but when I try to print anything on the MF751Cdw color laser printer, the images are not as sharp, clear and colorful as what is on the computer. I have adjusted colors on the printer, updated software on the printer, but to no avail. Suggestions please???

Greetings ,
Until calibrated, MACs are known for their inaccurate color rendering. iPhones too. With proper calibration and if using the correct profile a printer is capable of printing what you see on the screen accurately.
This is one of the best images for testing color accuracy. The author was Bill Atkinson.

Try printing directly from iPhoto without applying any profiles or corrections.
I would not make any changes on the printer as your monitor needs to be calibrated before making any printer adjustments.
