The adjective is a regular derivation from the noun 'stereotype' using the productive suffix '-ic', so the meaning is directly predictable from the base.
Etymology
The word stereotypic comes from stereo- ('solid') and type ('model'), and it is like stereotype, which first named a solid printing plate that made the same print again and again. So something stereotypic is 'fixed' and unoriginal, like a repeated model.
