Claim 9:
10. The method of claim 9, wherein the rotatable imaging member includes a conformable blanket around a central drum with the conformable blanket including the reimageable surface, and the step d) determining temperature increases above the reference temperature includes measuring the conformable blanket at the plurality of reimageable surface discrete coordinates on the reimageable surface according to the equation, Δ
