You state you are using 3 mobile Hot Spots (access points) in the building...Do you move the printer around? If not you should not need to have multiple WiFi connections to it and it should be accessible using the email address set up at HP for the device or using Google Cloud printing. Do the Hot Spots issue new IP addresses often? (are they dynamically assigned using DHCP?)

If you do need to move the printer around and don't need to access it from Google Cloud then perhaps you can set the printer to Wireless Direct and access it directly using WiFi from the computer to the printer. You should be able to then setup up each computer to use the same logon info to connect to the printer.

Unfortunately though, if you need to print from Google Cloud or HP ePrint then there is no way I can determine that the printer can automatically change from one Hot Spot (access point) to another. This support article suggests it is possible if the access points are all set to the same channel, something that may not be accessible on the mobile Hot Spot configuration.

<edit> Check the T-Mobile support page and you can change the channel on the Hot Spot. Perhaps setting them all to the same channel might work... </edit>
