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

There is a bug that was introduced in OS X 11.2 that breaks the
use of these ICC profiles in Photoshop. All you can do is
downgrade up upgrade (12.X isn't affected). That is why it isn't
playing nice, or playing at all. Lightroom Classic doesn't work
either.
Other than that, one could convert to the output color space and
use another application that prints without color management like
the Adobe Color Print Utility.
No, using Printer Manages Color will not fix this issue. You can
use that, without a full color management path (pick the profile,
the RI etc) but it is either PMC or AMC and in Photoshop, under
11.2 and apparently 11.3, broken.

turning OFF printer CM. For whatever reason this is not playing

the combination of options I used (Perceptual, Relative

Dither).
