Morphology
blanker = blank (transparent) = blank + er
Productive agent/instrument nominalization from the verb 'blank' with '-er', so 'blanker' meaning a device or person that blanks is directly derived.
Etymology
Blanker is formed from blank + -er, so it literally means 'one who makes something blank'. Because blank originally meant 'white' like a clean page that hides writing, a blanker is something or someone that covers, blocks, or hides to make an area empty or invisible.
