Let A be a C*-algebra. We prove that every absolutely summing operator from A into 2 factors through a Hilbert space operator that belongs to the 4-Schatten-von Neumann class. We also provide finite-dimensional examples that show that one cannot replace the 4-Schatten-von Neumann class by the p-Schatten-von Neumann class for any p < 4. As an application, we show that there exists a modulus of capacity ε → N(ε) so that if A is a C*-algebra and TΠ1(A,2) with π1(T)1, then for every ε >0, the ε-capacity of the image of the unit ball of A under T does not exceed N(ε). This answers positively a question raised by Pełczyński.
