If the payment was made online, it takes a grand total of one hour for it to update and the print visa option to be available. I did it myself a few days ago.
Now if the payment didnt go through or wasn't done or there was a system glitch; then it can take longer.
Theoretically once the payment prompt comes up, it means that the visa is approved. You just have to do enrollment, stamp visa and then do medical. There should not be a waiting period unless one of the issues I listed above has happened.
