On casual inspection, HTML export seems to derive the colors from the
way Emacs has fontified the buffer. It appears to insert the colors
literally, which I guess it has to if it’s going to base them on face
properties.

I think there are two plausible ways forward. If you like the colors
used by minted, you can try changing the faces in Emacs to match them.
If you like the colors used by Emacs, you can change the colors used by
minted to match. Minted appears to use pygments, so you could create
your own style[1] and then use that style in your documents[2].

My own approach to printed output[3] doesn’t use minted yet, so I
haven’t actually tried to do any of these things :-)
