I agree with Andrew, here are my own notes:
There is apparently a bug in Mac OSX Big Sur 11.6.2 in connection with ICC
profile use / printing,
Some users have reported success after updating to Monterey, personally I'd
be more likely to go back a version rather than jumping into a new OSX
version soon after release.
Sadly this bug appears to still be present in 11.6.3, according to users
here who have made that upgrade.
I hope this helps
