may be, defining a new printer can help you to retrieve the additional
info like current date/time. (See lynx.cfg, search for "printers").
You can write a script as printer command, which can modify the
downloaded text before showing/printing/saving...
Examples are given in lynx.cfg.
The script depends on the operating system (Linux, windows ...)

Under MS-DOS I did that, a program that copies the named file to its standard 
output _after_ environmental variables s names & values that Lynx generates; 
they begin "LYNX_PRINT_", describe in "environments.html".

LYNX_PRINT_DATE     This  variable  is  set  by  the  Lynx
                    p(rint) function, to the Date:  string
                    seen  in  the  document's "Information
                    about" page (= cmd), if  any.   It  is
                    created  for  use  by an external program,
                    as  defined   in   a   lynx.cfg
                    PRINTER: definition statement.  If the
                    field does not exist for the document,
                    the  variable  is set to a null string
                    under UNIX, or "No Date" under VMS.

LYNX_PRINT_LASTMOD  This  variable  is  set  by  the  Lynx
                    p(rint)  function,  to  the  Last Mod:
                    string seen in the document's  "Information
                    about"  page  (= cmd), if any.
                    It is created for use by  an  external
                    program,  as  defined  in  a  lynx.cfg
                    PRINTER: definition statement.  If the
                    field does not exist for the document,
                    the variable is set to a  null  string
                    under UNIX, or "No LastMod" under VMS.

LYNX_PRINT_TITLE    This  variable  is  set  by  the  Lynx
                    p(rint)  function,  to  the  Linkname:
                    string seen in the document's  "Information
                    about"  page  (= cmd), if any.
                    It is created for use by  an  external
                    program,  as  defined  in  a  lynx.cfg
                    PRINTER: definition statement.  If the
                    field does not exist for the document,
                    the variable is set to a  null  string
                    under UNIX, or "No Title" under VMS.

LYNX_PRINT_URL      This  variable  is  set  by  the  Lynx
                    p(rint) function, to the  URL:  string
                    seen  in  the  document's "Information
                    about" page (= cmd), if  any.   It  is
                    created  for  use  by an external program,
                    as  defined   in   a   lynx.cfg
                    PRINTER: definition statement.  If the
                    field does not exist for the document,
                    the  variable  is set to a null string
                    under UNIX, or "No URL" under VMS.

LYNX_VERSION        This variable is always set  by  Lynx,
                    and may be used by an external program
                    to determine  if  it  was  invoked  by
                    Lynx.   See  also  the comments in the
                    distribution's  sample  mailcap  file,
                    for notes on usage in such a file.
