Just use any of the compter language, say C,C++ make a program or rather i should say a software and then connect the hardware to the printer port and then execute the program to operate the hardware.

For example make a simple program to glow an LED through the pc, you can even use a micro-processor for the same...

Why set clock rate in router?

To configure the clock rate for the hardware connections on serial interfaces such as network interface modules (NIMs) and interface processors to an acceptable bit rate, use the clock rate interface configuration command. Use the no form of this command to remove the clock rate if you change the interface from a DCE to a DTE device. Using the no form of this command on a DCE interface sets the clock rate to the hardware-dependent default value.
