The MFC-L2710DW is a modern device and is completely supported by
packages shipped with Debian 11 (bullseye). It is also completely
supported for printing via a wireless connection on buster.
The packages needed for USB connections and scanning do not come
with buster but can easily be obtained from

Do yourself a favour and read

A user with a device such as yours does not need proprietary,
non-free printing or scanning drivers in 2021.
