You should be simply following the instruction. Even if its not in the instruction, always use color copies for any application which is easier for them review since stamps would be in different colour and will show that its authentic but its difficult to predict/confirm if its black and white.
Get it printed from outside as not everyone has printer at home. Its better to deal with cic at first time correctly to avoid document requests later which delays your application further.
Whenever they issue request of documents after test, they are again asking colour copies. So send only color copies of any support/additional documents.

"colour photocopy of all pages (valid or expired) of your passport(s) "

1/ Read your post. CIC asks for coloured photos, not black and white.

I see it’s been a while since you’ve posted, but I just wanted to ask—has anyone recently submitted black and white copies and had any issues? I’m getting ready to send my documents and don’t have easy access to a color printer. Would love to hear if more people had success with B&W, especially for things like passport copies.

If they don't specify, black and white is fine. If they specify colour - colour.

As far as I'm aware, it's usually only when asked to submit copies of all pages of passport that they specify colour - but not certain.

Note, since most applications are effectively now electronic - scan the stuff in colour or get them scanned somewhere in colour (some figure out how to do it with their phones), make a copy in black and white, and then you'll have both.
