I would use a pdf file, see ?pdf for examples. This plots a bunch of plots to a single file. You can also use tools like png (see ?png for examples) which will create 1 file per plot. You can either specify a name each time, or set a name pattern and have it fill in automatically. Either way the plots go straight to files without plotting on the screen.
