Non-profit organization: licensing for one font on 61 computers

We are interested in using Chaparral Pro on the event tickets that we print out.  The ticketing software can be used on (currently) 61 computers which connect to about 10 printers through one server.  Assuming we need a license for each computer, what is the best method to get those licenses?  Buying 13 of the $35 "5 computer" licenses seems odd; is there some sort of volume licensing program available?

    For fonts in the Adobe Type Library, each “retail” copy of a font is good for 5 desktop systems. For other font vendors, you need to check their particular terms.

    Yes, Adobe does have volume licensing discounts. Check the Adobe website for such information as to contacting the appropriate group within Adobe.

    I have looked around the website plenty; could you point me in the right direction?

    Also it is slightly more complicated.  We are planning to use the font on our event tickets.  The 61 workstations are capable of initiating the printing of those tickets but don't actually have the font installed or ever display it onscreen.  They send information about the ticket (seat number, customer name, etc.) to the server and the server has the font installed and prints the actual ticket.  So some guidance about how many licenses I actually need would be great.
