I'd recommend that you install a Postscript driver and use that. You can
get it from Adobe.
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/pdrvwin.htm
Set that driver up to print to the FILE: port (rather than choosing
Print to file). Now each time you need an ps/eps file of a fig you just
choose this printer rather than your ordinary printer.
I think also you can choose the driver to output EPS if you want to. LyX
can handle EPS (it is better than PS for figures etc.)
