Why not just purchase transparancies to print on? Soaking a print in mineral oil should give you some interesting effects, but I doubt they'd give you what you seek, unless you are looking for some fuzziness or inaccuracies. Take a print and soak it, see what it looks like. A laser print will hold up fairly for a while, and God only knows what result you'll get from an ink-jet. I suspect it will depend a lot on the type or paper, ink, etc. For my $.02 I'd go buy some transparancy blanks for whatever printer you're using and use that. I don't suspect that the oil thing is going to do terribly well, I suspect it's going to do weird things with your light, etc.
You don't say what application you are really intending, as I have done the emulsion with varying techniques on screen print and litho stones with some wonderful, and sometimes bizzarre results.
Another fun trick is to use an LCD projector with your computer. Took me a lot of experimentation to get the time correct for the light levels, but it sure was a blast trying...
