No, in fact due to bad publicity and several law suits and class
actions, most inkjet printers today come with full size cartridges which
are filled.

In some cases, the printer will come with an "economy" cartridge which
is indeed smaller that the "standard" or "jumbo" versions, but that
cartridge will sometime be available to purchases as a lower cost
alternative to the larger cartridge.  In general those smaller
cartridges are a poor investment.

With laser printers, and particularly color ones, the installed
cartridges often are 50% or less of the normally sold replacement
product.  In some cases, you can just refill them, other kinds which
require a new or replacement microchip, may not work at all even if
refilled, or may run at a much lower speed to punish you for refilling.
