Some alternatives - consider a map statement for the inner loop and consider a heredoc for the title. You could probably make the header separator a static too. Something like (not tested):

sub printSettings {
    my @groups = shift;
    my $sep = "=" x 60;
    foreach my $table (@groups) {
        foreach my $info (@$table) { 
            my $cnt = 1;
            print <<EOF;
$sep
     $info->[0]
$sep

EOF

            print map { sprintf "%5s.   %-25s %-5s $info->[1]\n", $cnt
+++, $_;} sort keys {$info->[1]};
        }
    }
}

Thank you space_monk. I had thought of using map, but decided against it. In reading this reply to a previous post of mine Re: Efficiency of map vs. more verbose basic/fundamental code it is suggested that map is better used to create a new list based on modified elements of a previous one, rather than in the printing of a list. I will definitely look into a heredoc for the title, though. I like the way you did that. Thank you again for your suggestions.
