Printed photos but slight color shifts observed.

Our take

After printing several photos at a local print store that specializes in various printing services, I observed slight color shifts, particularly with cyan leaning towards blue and yellow shifting towards orange. My images were exported from Lightroom in both TIFF and JPEG formats, with the TIFF file submitted for printing. The store utilized an HP D5800 printer, which required the files to be converted to PDF, a step I didn't notice at the time. What strategies can I implement next time to ensure color accuracy?

I have recently printed few photos from my local print store. It's not a photography oriented print store.. it does all kinds of printing like banners and other stuff. Overall result was good but I saw slightly color shift of cyan towards blue and maybe slight shift of yellow to orange.

My lightroom export was in tiff and jpg. I gave tiff for printing. The printer they used was HP D5800. I also noticed the printer asks only pdf file so they converted locally to pdf but I didn't notice any change that time.

What can I do next time for this? I am not even sure if this is a repeatable outcome.
