Abstract: Let $X$, $Y$ and $Z$ be Banach spaces and let $U$ be a subspace of $\mathcal{L}(X^*,Y)$, the Banach space of all operators from $X^*$ to $Y$. An operator $S: U \to Z$ is said to be $(\ell^s_p,\ell_p)$-summing (where $1\leq p <\infty$) if there is a constant $K\geq 0$ such that $$ \Big( \sum_{i=1}^n |S(T_i)|_Z^p \Big)^{1/p} \le K \sup_{x^* \in B_{X^*}} \Big(\sum_{i=1}^n |T_i(x^*)|_Y^p\Big)^{1/p} $$ for every $n\in \mathbb{N}$ and every $T_1,\dots,T_n \in U$. In this paper we study this class of operators, introduced by Blasco and Signes as a natural generalization of the $(p,Y)$-summing operators of Kislyakov. On one hand, we discuss Pietsch-type domination results for $(\ell^s_p,\ell_p)$-summing operators. In this direction, we provide a negative answer to a question raised by Blasco and Signes, and we also give new insight on a result by Botelho and Santos. On the other hand, we extend to this setting the classical theorem of Kwapień characterizing those operators which factor as $S_1\circ S_2$, where $S_2$ is absolutely $p$-summing and $S_1^*$ is absolutely $q$-summing ($1<p,q<\infty$ and $1/p+1/q \leq 1$).
