This may seem silly, but I've seen this as a problem for some folks in 
the past.  In particular my office mate told me he couldn't ever get 
LyX to print.  I was curious, so I tried it, and *his* LyX printed 
for *me*.  It took us a while to figure out what I was doing that he 
wasn't...

The default option on the print dialog is cancel, not print.  If you 
just hit Enter when the dialog comes up, you cancel the dialog.  You 
have to click on the print button at the bottom.

Best regards,
