I believe the answer is:

photostat

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'not an original' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'pot shot at reforms' is the wordplay.
'reforms' indicates anagramming the letters.
'pot'+'shot'+'at'='potshotat'
'potshotat' anagrammed gives 'PHOTOSTAT'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for photostat that I've seen before include "Copying machine" , "Reproduced copy" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
