ABSTRACT:
Apparatus adapted to transport and print around the circumference or portions thereof, and on an endwise portion of the capsules is provided. The apparatus comprises a hopper and capsule transport means adjacent said hopper to receive the capsules from the hopper. The capsules are transported to a wrap-around printing station wherein the desired indicia are imprinted on the capsule as it is spun about its longitudinal axis. At another printing station located along the capsule transport means, a printing roll imprints the desired indicia upon an endwise portion of the capsule. The capsules are rectified, i.e., all the cap portions of the capsule are disposed along the same side of the transport means so that the desired markings may be imprinted upon corresponding portions of each capsule.
