Folded printed products ( 6 ) are supplied with trailing fold-edges ( 6.3 ) from above towards a clamping gap ( 1 ) and are pushed out of the clamping gap ( 1 ), in order to be deposited on, for example, saddle-like supports ( 7 ). As soon as the leading edge of each printed product ( 6 ) exits from the clamping gap ( 1 ), the printed product ( 6 ) is opened by two printed product parts ( 6.1 and 6.2 ) being separated from each other, and the opened printed products are positioned above the support ( 7 ). Gripper elements ( 11 ) are provided for gripping the trailing fold-edge ( 6.3 ) of each printed product ( 6 ), before it exits the clamping gap ( 1 ), thus preventing a free fall of the printed products ( 6 ) onto the support ( 7 ) when the trailing fold-edge ( 6.3 ) exits the clamping gap ( 1 ). The gripper elements ( 11 ) grip and guide the printed products towards the support ( 7 ). If a plurality of supports ( 7 ) is provided, and these are conveyed continuously and in succession past, below the stationary clamping gap ( 1 ), the fold-edges ( 6.3 ) of the printed products ( 6 ) are moved by the gripper elements ( 11 ) to track the supports ( 7 ).
