(Windows 10 64-bit, HP Deskjet 3070)
I was scanning a book with "HP Scan". After the 60th page the program said that there is no enough RAM to complete the scan, lower the resolution, try again. I wanted to save the pages that I have by now, got the same message. Deleted several pages, tried to save, got the same message. Tried to locate the temporary file, didn't find. The standard folders are WINDOWS\Temp and C:\Users\MyUsername\AppData\Local\Temp - there are no recent big files there.
The program is meanwhile open.
Questions:
1) Is there some folder where this program keeps temporary scans?
2) Is there another way in which I can save the already scanned pages?
Thank you in advance!

Welcome to the HP Support Community!
I reviewed your post and I understand that are you facing issues scanning.
Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.
- Do you have the full feature software installed on the computer?
- From which app/software you are scanning?
The printer keeps in the scanned files in the printer's memory and on the computer. You need to scan fewer pages and then save them to the computer.
I recommend you use HP Smart app for Windows. Refer to the below article for more information.

Unfortunately, I am afraid that you didn't read my posting.
> From which app/software you are scanning?
I have clearly indicated that.
> The printer keeps in the scanned files in the printer's memory and on the computer.
I know. My question was, where they are located.
> You need to scan fewer pages and then save them to the computer.
I know. I wrote clearly that I want to locate temporary files without exiting the program.
