Is it true that when you buy a new printer that the ink cartridges are not full? They are maybe half full.

HP's are starter cartages, half full.
Lexmark, Epson, Cannon are all full I believe.

I would say that printer cartridges coming hafl full is a load of crap. Maybe you should take the time and read the packing or read the website of printer MANF. and see that they generally sell ink carts in 2 different sizes large and economy. Next time read the label and see if ur getting around 20 ml or over 40 ml

And spunkie is right as well. HP printers only come with Economy carts that only come with 23 ml of ink.
