Morphology
stereotyped = stereotype (transparent) = stereotype + ed
The adjective is formed by adding the regular participial/adjectival suffix '-ed' to 'stereotype', yielding 'made into a stereotype' or 'conforming to a stereotype', a directly derived meaning.
Etymology
Stereotyped comes from stereotype, which is made of stereo- meaning 'solid' and type meaning 'a model or stamp'. A stereotype was a solid printing plate used to make many exact copies, so stereotyped describes something fixed and repeated and therefore not original.
