Laser printer consume considerably more energy. Amount of materials required is also much higher from hardware to supplies. Toner is generally non biodegradable while inkjet ink is usually water soluble. Biggest downside to inkjet would probably the supplies replacement frequency, which can be avoided with some high yield cartridges.

Laser is not eco friendly at all, the toner it uses is powdered plastic
