There is no way of printing off BIOS settings as when you are in BIOS there is nothing loaded in the way of drivers of any kind other than the very basic ones concerned with the CMOS which just covers the M'Board and fitted components like HDD/s.
If you want to refer back to the original BIOS Settings the only way is to take a photo of them and even then things will not stay the same as at the very least the Date & Time will constantly change as well as any Hardware that is recognized by BIOS to allow whatever OS that you have installed to load.

On the up side however provided you follow the very basic Security precautions there are only 2 ways that the BIOS settings can change.
The first is Human Intervention that means someone messed with it
or
The CMOS Battery goes flat and even then all you need do is unplug the computer change the battery and power it back up again and when you get the BIOS error message all you should need to do to get a working system is set the Date & Time as just entering BIOS will reset your RAM & CPU the only thing that it can not reset is the Date & Time and while it may not be the best settings it will work.
