Morphology

unpainful = painful (transparent) = un + pain + ful

The adjective is formed by straightforward negation (un-) of 'painful', so the meaning 'not causing pain' follows directly.

Etymology

Unpainful starts with un- which means 'not' and ends with painful from pain. So it simply means 'not accompanied by pain', and you can remember it like the common word painless.
