Is it more environmentally friendly to laser print in colour or black and white?

In my office we fill out a time sheet each week, which has a yellow background and must be printed out on a laser printer.  I print mine in colour, but many colleagues print the sheet in black and white so the background colour comes out light grey.  They claim this is more environmentally friendly.  But I say there's no evidence that black ink has a higher environmental cost than yellow ink, so it makes no difference.  Who is right?
