HI, i installed the new board MKS-SKIPR on my 3d printing. I like to control it over the USB cable, using the serial port like a normal 3d printer, it's possible to do this with this board? thanks.

not with the klipper firmware, it isn't supposed to be used this way. by the way, you can create and compile a marlin firmware, this way you can use the MCU-USB connection to connect to your pc. you can also install repetier-server or octoprint on the "Pi" part and use it through this software. but with klipper installed, you connect through wifi or ethernet and push your files to mainsail/fluidd/... and let them handle the printing, so you can shutdown your main pc.
