It sounds like you're sending CMYK colors (default Draw color palette) to an
RGB printer with no color management. What are your color maanagement
settings? Do you have color profiles for your printer?

Additionally to what Craig's written, have you calibrated your monitor?

Do you have your radio button in the Cm dialog set to RGB or CMYK? Set it to
RGB and you might get the correct output if you are printing to a sRGB
printer.

Hello all
I'm printing to a HP 1280 Deskjet. Bitmaps color are great, but drawn
objects with color fills are all over the place eg. a Sea Green comes out as
limey color. Any ideas on how to correct this?

I did a quick search an apparently HP didn't make any profiles for your
printer. I would try sertting your color management to RGB as Alfred
suggested and use an RGB color pallete instead of CMYK.
