ALL inkjet printers use CMYK ink. The printer manufacturer supplies a driver which only accepts an RGB image and converts it to CMYK as part of the rasterizing process.
There are RIP programs that replace the driver provided by the printer manufacturer which will process CMYK images but they cost more than most inkjet printers.
