Yes, giclee printers typically have ten or more inks, and Risograph printers offer a wider but limited set of options.

"gicleé" is just a neologism that means "I will charge my customers more to recoup the capital cost of this large inkjet printer" and doesn't really have any inherent meaning as to the number of inks.

Yes. With a limited carve-out for anyone still running an Iris, who originated that neologism in a much more sceptical market.
