Morphology

untipped = tipped (transparent) = un + tip + ed

The negative prefix 'un-' attached to 'tipped' yields the straightforward meaning 'not having a tip'.

Etymology

Untipped begins with the part un- meaning 'not' and ends with tip, meaning 'end' or 'point'. So it simply says 'not having a special tip', which fits things like a cigarette without a filter or a match without its safety tip.
