freeze with zebra module

[luzak34]

I cant freeze my script with zebra module. After build i receive error:
File "C:\Users\bartek\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python310\site-packages\cx_Freeze\initscripts_startup_.py", line 138, in run
module_init.run(name + "main")
File "C:\Users\bartek\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python310\site-packages\cx_Freeze\initscripts\console.py", line 16, in run
exec(code, module_main.dict) # pylint: disable=exec-used

import win32print
ImportError: DLL load failed while importing win32print: Nie można odnaleźć określonego modułu.

my script (simplified):

from zebra import Zebra
import win32print
z = Zebra()
printers=z.getqueues()

any ideas how to fix it?

Sorry for taking so long to see this.
Usually importing win32api or win32files together solves the problem.
Or via the command line using --includes=pywintypes
But I made a hook to make it work without hacks or options.
