Too late to edit again, but wanted to add, in Linux Mint an older similar Brother at home just works when you plug it into the USB connection, alternatively on Wifi when part of the online LAN, just works when a Mint PC is on the same Wifi router. No drivers necessary either way. One more thing, when W11 was released, the Brother website said they would have W11 drivers within 60 days or so. Showed up early and were the exact same driver files used for W10 the last few years.
