Claim:
1. A method of operating a dispenser within a jetting system to dispense droplets of a fluid material at discrete dispense locations provided at electronic components on a substrate, the method comprising: moving the dispenser through each of the discrete dispense locations without dispensing the fluid material; analyzing the discrete dispense locations of the dispenser to determine a spatial error corresponding to at least one of the discrete dispense locations; creating a corrected map of the discrete dispense locations based defining a continuous motion path based on the spatial error; moving the substrate to a fixed position in the jetting system; continuously moving the dispenser along the discrete dispense locations of the continuous motion path, without stopping the motion of the dispenser between the electronic components and while changing a direction of the continuous movement while moving along the continuous motion path; and depositing the droplets of the fluid material from the dispenser at each of the discrete dispense locations of the continuous motion path on the substrate as the dispenser continuously moves along the continuous motion path without stopping between the electronic components, wherein prior to arriving at each discrete dispense location of the continuous motion path, a control signal is provided to the dispenser to initiate dispensing of each droplet.
