different colors when move between photoshop and imageready

Hi all, wondering if anyone can offer any sugestions?

When i transfer files with a particular color between PS and IR the colour changes, both using same RGB base. Color is code, R=101 G=101 B=101 should give a grey vairiation, sometimes gets represented as a mauve/rich chocolate.

I thought i'd got around it by just recreating the files until looked ok on screen, exported to acrobat, printed and I found that printed in the mauve color, rather than the grey. well 2 of the 4 did anyway. Have 4 blocks of the of what should be the same color, look same on screen but when printed, change. got me stumped

anyone have any suggestion?

thanks

michael
