The prime minister told the French president that compromise will "only cause enduring instability" as the pair met to discuss the war at the G7 summit in Germany.
Mr Macron was criticised for negotiating with Mr Putin at the start of the invasion and said Russia must not be "humiliated" raising fears Ukraine could be pushed into giving up territory.
In the talks, the PM "stressed any attempt to settle the conflict now will only cause enduring instability and give Mr Putin licence to manipulate both sovereign countries and international markets in perpetuity," said a No 10 spokesperson.
Earlier yesterday, Mr Johnson said there was some "fatigue in populations and politicians" when it came to the conflict. "I think the pressure is there and the anxiety is there, we have got to be honest about that."
No 10 sought to play down talk of a dispute with the French president, saying the pair had enjoyed a "very friendly and useful" discussion on Ukraine.
