Morphology

pricer = price (transparent) = price + er

Standard agent-noun formation from the verb 'price' with the productive English suffix '-er'.

Etymology

Pricer comes from the common word price meaning 'cost' and the ending -er meaning 'one who does something'. So a pricer is literally 'one who sets the cost', which is why the word names a person or device that marks prices for goods or services.
