I don't think it's post-processable - you can't go from threshold b/w to greyscale because you've already thrown away the data you need. You can post-process from greyscale to threshold, though. I would be inclined to scan text as greyscale, and then post-process to threshold b/w if the user asks for OCR. Threshold text is almost unreadable, too, whereas greyscale looks perfectly fine, so if the user scans text but does not intend to OCR, they'll be happy with the result.
