Yes, inkjet printers can use ink even when not actively printing. They perform maintenance tasks, such as nozzle cleanings, to prevent clogs, which can consume small amounts of ink. Additionally, if the printer is left idle for an extended period, it may also use ink to keep the print heads in optimal condition. This can lead to ink depletion over time, even without regular use.
