Seems allot of people seem to forget how ineffective lasers can be against armor tankers. Their calculations depict raw damage without accounting for resistances of the target ship.
Using Autocannons on a maller may inflict less Raw damage BUT the pilot will be able to do a wide variety of damage types and the damage calculations posted above will loose accuracy at that point since the pilot will be able to focus on the opponents weaker resistances.
Its a two sided sword. Both sides got their strong points but neither is 100% valid since there are weaknesses to both.
Due to the mallers abilities it makes it a viable ship to use a multitude of different weapons on it and in thus makes it the players choice. Even with Ammar cruiser on lvl 5 and controled bursts AC's and other weapons will still take less cap giving you a better tank.
Fit whatever you feel comfortable with i'd say. You want high damage output on shields and mediocre output on armor fit lasers. You want an awesome tank and an average of shield and armor damage fit AC's.

Because I'm a Minmatar pilot, and have projectiles (and more specifically - AC spec) trained up.
But I think the Maller is kinda nifty, and it'd be fun to try my hand at flying a different race's cruisers for a bit -- Maller looks like a good fit having a killer tank and no turret dmg bonus.

blaster also use a fair bit of cap so would hinder your tank rather than help it

soem amarr ships are better off with projectile weapons because of EM armor resists and the fact they dont use cap.
Maller
Prophecy
Apoc
why use energy weapons when you dont get a damage bonus for them and they eat your cap, unless you have totaly uber cap skills projectiles are the way to go.
