There's no Style changes involved; just learning to either format the paragraph break as hidden (dead simple) or remembering how to use the Style Separator (something else to clutter the grey-matter). Obviously, you'd apply the hidden attribute or Style Separator to whichever of the caption & equation paragraphs occurs first.

A Print Preview, printing the document or Ctrl-A, F9 should update all of them. Check, too, that Word's 'update fields before printing' option is checked. Another option would be to have a macro in the document or its template to auto-update the fields every time you open the document. Such a macro might be coded along the lines of:
Code:
Private Sub Document_Open()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
With ActiveDocument
  .Fields.Update
  .PrintPreview
  .ClosePrintPreview
  .Saved = True
End With
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
