Zusammenfassung:	A method and apparatus for removing hollow containers such as cups having a generally circular cross-section and a cylindrical or frusto-conical shape from an orbiting mandrel continuously moving the containers through a process where their side walls are printed. The removal apparatus of the invention utilizes a suction cup movable through an orbital path and adapted to engage the closed end of the container and to move it rapidly to a conveyor means for transfer to a remote position without contacting the printed side wall of the container.
