Deskjet 2548 all in one
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I scanned a 150 page PDF document, but when trying to save the file it says that I have insufficient RAM and to reduce resolution and try again. Scanner resolution is set at 200 dpi and computer has 8G of RAM running Windows 10. RAM usage is about 40% and all other apps are closed.  Each page is approximately 500kb, so why is there not enough to complete the task?

While you respond to that, let's try these steps -

 

Step 1 Reboot the devices -

 

1) Turn off the Router, Printer, and the computer/ mobile devices. 
2) Wait for 60 seconds. 
3) Turn on the Router first and wait for all the lights to stabilize. 
4) Turn on the printer and allow it to configure itself. 
5) Turn on the computer/ mobile devices.

 

Step 2 HP Print and Scan Doctor -

Step 3 Re-install the printer drivers -

 

1) In the search box, type and open "Uninstall a Program". 
2) Look for HP Printer software. 
3) Right-click to uninstall. 
4) In the search box, type 
and open “Devices and printers”. 
5) In the Devices and Printers, look for your HP printer. If you see it listed right-click on it and choose “Delete” or “Remove Device”. 
6) Open the run command with the "Windows key + R" key combo.  
7) Type printui.exe /s and click Ok. (Note: there is a space in between “printui.exe” and “/s”). 
8) Click on the "Drivers" tab.
