A volcanic eruption here on Earth can not affect the Sun. However, a volcanic eruption here on Earth can put particles of ash and some volcanic gases into the atmosphere that affects the transparency of Earth's atmosphere to sunlight. With the ash content the skies near the volcano go dark during the day and with the gases (especially sulfur oxides) the amount of cloud cover increases causing sunlight to be reflected and the air to cool.
