Don't forget that the screen is backlit and looks bright - paper is plain white (usually) and doesn't 'project' the luminosity. And new monitors tend to be a little bright..... if you reduce the brightness very slightly, and adjust your image so it looks 'right' again, you'll find your prints are a little better. After that, though, there's the whole subject of colour management, paper profiles, screen calibration, monitor profiles, colour spaces.... it can be a nightmare!
