Probable Cause
The local control controller’s poor judgment in duty prioritization which distracted them from monitoring arriving and departing traffic and resulted in a runway incursion and loss of same runway separation. Contributing was the operations supervisor’s decision to troubleshoot a faulty flight strip printer instead of maintaining direct supervision of the operation.
