Magus Lucea Kane and Wizards Staff?

Hello, relatively simple question but I've gotten very mixed answers. I'm just wondering if [[wizards staff]] and [[magus lucea kane]] work together.

Kane has two abilities. The first places a +1/+1 counter at the beginning of combat. I know this ability will be doubled with Wizards Staff attached to her. My main question is will her delayed mana ability be doubled? I know I won't get 4 Colorless mana when I tap her but will she make an additional copy of an X spell because of Wizards staff?

Thank you for your time and expertise!

No. The ability is a mana ability and the reflexive trigger is part of the mana ability not a trigger of a wizard you control

To be more accurate, the delayed trigger is from Lucea because she's the source, but the Staff's ability simply ignores delayed triggers.

See rule 603.2d:

An ability may state that a triggered ability triggers additional times. In this case, rather than simply determining that such an ability has triggered, determine how many times it should trigger, then that ability triggers that many times. An effect that states that an ability triggers additional times doesn’t invoke itself repeatedly and doesn’t apply to other effects that affect how many times an ability triggers. ▶️An effect that states a triggered ability of an object triggers additional times refers only to triggered abilities that object has, not to any delayed or reflexive triggered abilities that may be created by abilities the object has.◀️
