Explanation:

Practical difference:

A dot matrix printer is slower, noisier and lower print quality but much cheaper to operate (ribbons are very cheap, and last a long time) and very reliable. It can also create carbon copies due to the fact that it prints using impacts.

A laser printer is much faster and still cheaper to operate than an inkjet, but cannot create carbon copies and the toner cartridges are expensive even if they last a long time.

Functional difference:

A dot matrix printer works like a type writer in that it has a ribbon which is struck against the paper by a “hammer”. In a typewriter there is a hammer for each letter, number and symbol, in a dot matrix there is an array of pins, depending on what is printing different combinations of pins are used to create the shape. The quality of the printout depends on the size of the pins.

A laser printer traces the image with a laser which causes the toner to stick, it is then run through the fuser where the toner is melted into the paper.
