Hello,
I had the same issue with my Prusa i3 maxi. Mirrored along X axis.
The aim is to use the X endstop not as MIN endstop but as MAX endstop
What I did:
Check the config by sending M119 in pronterface.
SENDING:M119
Reporting endstop status
x_min: open
x_max: TRIGGERED
y_min: open
y_max: TRIGGERED
z_min: open
z_max: TRIGGERED
Disconnect and shutdown.
Connect the X endstop on the MAX endstop pin on the Arduino Mega board. It's just the pin connector nearby.
In Arduino config :
Invert the value of INVERT_X_DIR
and set X_HOME_DIR to 1
Power up and send the new config to the board.
Then connect Pronterface and send M119 again
SENDING:M119
Reporting endstop status
x_min: TRIGGERED
x_max: open
y_min: open
y_max: TRIGGERED
z_min: open
z_max: TRIGGERED
Now click on X home position.
It should go to the usual X home position but print X mirrored now!
Regards

The main thing is to make sure your printer is moving in the right direction. I've drawn up this diagram:
So if you command X+ the nozzle should move to the right.
If you command Y+ the printbed should move toward you.
As noted above, you can reverse the stepper wires for the motor going in the wrong direction (with power off) or change the Invert setting in firmware.

Hmm, this seems to come up a lot, so someone with a Prusa/mendel should make a Wiki page...
