Dye-deposited base body manufacturing apparatus and dyeing system

A dye-deposited base body manufacturing apparatus for the manufacture of a dye-deposited base body to which a dye to be transferred to a resin body is deposited for use in a dyeing step of dyeing the resin body, the dye-deposited base body manufacturing apparatus comprising:

• a printing device that prints a dye on a printing surface of a base body having a sheet-shape;
• a conveyance device that conveys a dyeing tray on which the resin body is placed;
• a base body placing device that places the dye-deposited base body on which the dye is printed by the printing device at a predetermined position on the dyeing tray in the conveyance device;
• and
• a base body movement device that moves the dye-deposited base body from a printing position by the printing device to a side of the conveyance device by delivering the dye-deposited base body from the printing position to the base body placing device;
• wherein the base body placing device has a base body holding unit that holds the base body in a state where the base body holding unit is in contact with a reverse surface of the base body that is opposite to the printing surface;
• and
• wherein a contact surface of the base body holding unit in contact with the reverse surface of the base body is a flat surface.
