It can be done in mach settings or by swapping wires. On the driver there should be A plus and minus and B plus and minus outputs to the motor. If you switch either one pair A or B wires (swap plus with minus) it will run the other way. I think the mach settings are in ports and pins, but I have not done it in mach in a while. If you do the wire swapping, make sure it's powered off.

Paul,
did you mean to say slaved motors run off/with 1[same] step and direction inputs to 2 drives?
I've built a lot of controls, I don't see how you could drive 2 motors from the same driver.
