you see on the monitor, you may need to change the print settings, or the
machine itself may have engaged in problems. See

If the slide mounts are white then
light reflected off them will show up. Use black mounts, or mask the slide mount with a black frame.

not obscure them.
Note
It may not be improved even if repositioning the film depending on the
film. In that case, scan from the computer. For details, refer to the Scan
Guide.
