Say I cast Copy Artifact targeting my Chrome Mox which has been imprinted with a blue card. Am I correct in thinking the copy would not be able to produce any mana due to its ability referencing the imprinted card's color (i.e. the mox copy was not imprinted)?
You must exile another card. It says it enters the battlefield as that card. Then chrome mox checks imprint, you imprint, if you don’t, it has no card to recognize for mana symbols.
it enters as a copy, but it’s similar to counters, it doesn’t get all the other stuff. It’s just a copy of the card.
When Copy Artifact enters the battlefield, it has the imprint ability of Chrome Mox, which will trigger for that enchantment. If you exile a colored card with that trigger, then the mana ability will be able to produce mana.
You are correct at least that the copy's functionality has nothing to do with the other Mox's exiled card.
