Morphology
unprinted = printed (transparent) = un + print + ed
The word 'unprinted' is transparently formed from 'printed' by adding the prefix 'un-', indicating the absence of printing.
Etymology
The word unprinted is made of un- meaning 'not' and print meaning 'to put words or pictures on paper'. So unprinted describes something 'not printed', like plain paper or fabric with no design.
