What you see on the screen is Additive color, but what you see on paper is Subtractive color. Printers need to convert between the two color spaces. However, RGB color schemes do not give enough information to convert uniquely.
There are systems such as Pantone that attempt to compensate. Pantone is not inherently a science though: it is more a whole series of reference points that vendors are expected to do whatever it takes on their end to reproduce.
There are science based methods to describe color in more detail. At the moment I do not recall if they need one extra or two extra parameters beyond RGB.
The quality of the paper does matter, along with how glossy or mate it is, and also its color.
